At the opening of the 2026 Lujiazui Forum, Zhu Hexin, vice governor of the
People’s Bank of China and head of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange
(SAFE), said authorities will shortly roll out a package of incremental
measures: comprehensively reform cross-border FDI policy; further simplify FX
procedures for outbound direct investment (ODI) and external debt; optimize
rules for foreign-exchange loans and cross-border equity-incentive arrangements;
and issue a new tranche of QDII quotas.
