In a world facing unprecedented challenges, top economists and officials are gathering at the 2025 Tsinghua PBCSF Global Finance Forum in Beijing. The theme of the forum, “A Shared Future: Building an Open and Inclusive Economic and Financial System,” underscores the urgent need for collaboration across nations.
Lord Mark Malloch-Brown, former deputy secretary-general of the United Nations, is among the distinguished speakers. He will be joined by Shi Kang, a special-term professor at Tsinghua PBCSF; Erik Berglof, chief economist of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB); and Massimiliano Castelli, managing director and head of strategy at UBS.
The forum aims to provide a high-level platform for dialogue, bringing together global government officials, economists, and financial leaders to explore new opportunities for collaboration. Discussions will focus on aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and orchestrating international cooperation in an uncertain world.
“Now more than ever, it’s crucial that we work together to create an inclusive economic system that benefits everyone,” said Professor Shi Kang. “This forum is an opportunity to share ideas and develop strategies that will shape our shared future.”
Young people around the world are keenly watching as decisions made today will significantly impact the global economy they inherit. The forum’s focus on openness and inclusivity resonates with the aspirations of the younger generation in the Global South, who are eager for equitable economic opportunities.
The 2025 Tsinghua PBCSF Global Finance Forum represents a significant step toward fostering international collaboration and building a more connected and prosperous world.
