The State Administration of Foreign Exchange issued the “China Balance of Payments Report for the First Half of 2026”. Among them, it was mentioned that in the coming period, the global economy may continue to be divided, scientific and technological innovation will continue to profoundly affect the economic and trade pattern. Protectionism, geopolitical conflicts, and fluctuations in international financial markets may bring new risks and challenges, and the external situation is still complicated. China has accelerated the construction of a new development pattern, continued to deepen reform and opening-up, stepped up efforts to expand domestic demand, optimize supply, and promote continued economic development in a new, positive and positive direction. The foundation for the smooth operation of the balance of payments is more stable. It is expected that the current account balance will continue to grow, and trade, exports and imports will develop in a coordinated manner. Cross-border two-way investment is expected to remain active. Various types of investment in China will continue to improve, and China's foreign investment will continue to grow steadily. The foreign exchange management department will adhere to a service mindset, an open mindset, and a safe mindset, comprehensively and thoroughly push forward foreign exchange management reforms, improve the level of foreign exchange services, and continue to establish a “more convenient, more open, safer, and more intelligent” foreign exchange management system mechanism to provide strong support for building a strong financial country and promoting a high level of openness.
