    • Kofi A. Annan

      U.N. Secretary-General (1997-2006)

    I am pleased to see that specific efforts are being made to identify good practices and projects that will help to advance societal progress.

    Kofi A. Annan

    • Ban Ki-moon

      U.N. Secretary-General (2007-2016)

    I am pleased to extend warm greetings to all participants of IFF, the meeting was held in an important moment when the global financial crisis is worsening and putting serious threat on the global economy, especially for poorest and most vulnerable members in human society. Even before the recent round of financial turmoil, our efforts to reduce poverty had been challenged by rising food and energy prices and accelerating climate change. Achieving the Millennium Development Goals is more challenging than ever before. We cannot let the global financial crisis worsen, and let our past achievements go to waste and let more people into poverty. We must protect the precarious livelihoods of the people.

    Ban Ki-moon

    • António Guterres

      U.N. Secretary-General (2017-)

    I am pleased to greet this International Finance Forum. You meet at a pivotal moment. Financing is critical. We must mobilize public and private finance to champion social and environmental change.

    António Guterres

      Former Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of China

    As an independent, international academic think-tank, IFF has witnessed the extraordinary ups and downs of the world's economy and finance over the past decade. As the world evolves, IFF has grown in influence and upgraded to the F20 (Finance 20) status. Ever since its inception, IFF has received support from over 200 global financial leaders, and established partnerships with over 30 countries and regions, more than 50 international and regional organizations.

    • Robert A. Mundell

      The 1st and 2nd Co-chairman of IFF
      Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics

    It is necessary for China to establish a long-term IFF. The rapid growth of the Chinese economy has become a focus point of the world, as the international capital flow is gradually turning its direction to China. The establishment of a high-profile dialogue platform will inject positive energy into China's financial reform and development and help to promote the international capital development. As well as a global high-level symposium with unique Chinese perspectives, the IFF will help us to explore more on a financial theme.

    Robert A. Mundell

    • Paul Volcker

      Founding Member and Honorary Chairman of IFF
      Former Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve Board

    The International Finance Forum is a very important platform for promoting international financial cooperation and development, and I hope I can complete this important mission.

    Paul Volcker

    • Han Seung-soo

      Founding Member and Co-chairman of IFF
      Chair, the Council of Presidents of the United Nations General Assembly
      Former Prime Minister of the Republic of Korea

    Global financial crisis made the elites all over the world clearly recognize that the reform of the global financial system is very essential. Non-governmental organizations also need to actively explore ways out of the crisis. Asia now has its own international financial forum, and the Asian economy is showing signs of recovery now. China and other emerging countries in the world economy provided the impetus for the recovery. I am very pleased to see the Chinese government's determination and efforts to overcome the crisis in the international financial forum (IFF). I believe the International Finance Forum (IFF) could make its own contribution to overcome the international financial crisis.

    Han Seung-soo

    • Kevin Michael Rudd

      The 3rd Chairman and Co-chairman of IFF
      Former Prime Minister of Australia

    It's my great honor to be an IFF Co-chairman; I hope to make due contribution to the internationalization of IFF. As a high-end platform, IFF has close ties with financial, economic and political leaders, experts and scholars, and plays a key role in the direct financial diplomacy.

    Kevin Michael Rudd

    • Herman Van Rompuy

      IFF Co-Chairman
      President Emeritus of the European Council
      Former Prime Minister of Belgium

    Dialogue remains the only approach to settling disputes and developing relationships. In any case, both the EU and China want to maintain the multilateral framework, not only in words but also in deeds. The EU and China are both strongly committed to the most important issue for mankind: climate change.

    Herman Van Rompuy

    • José Manuel Durão Barroso

      IFF Co-Chairman
      Former Chairman of the European Commission
      Former Prime Minister of Portugal

    It was for me a pleasure to accept the invitation to join IFF as Co-chair. I have accepted it because I believe it's a very important international institution and an independent think-tank based here in China that offers a platform for open discussions on the very important topics of international finance and economy.

    José Manuel Durão Barroso

    • Shaukat Aziz

      Founding Member and Co-chairman of IFF

    • Jean-Claude Trichet

      Founding Member and the 3rd Co-chairman of IFF
      Former President of the European Central Bank

    • Jenny Shipley

      Founding Member and Co-chairperson of IFF
      Former Prime Minister of New Zealand

    It's a great honor for me to participate in the IFF. I met so many celebrities here who are outstanding financial leaders and governors around the world. I believe it will be a successful and fruitful conference. China will be a key innovation leader worldwide during the next fifty years and some of her innovation as she solves her own problems of development may finish up having a major impact on world markets.

    Jenny Shipley

    • Tony Blair

      Founding Member of IFF
      Former Prime Minister of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

    On this occasion of the opening of the IFF, I want to sincerely wish all of the participants a very successful conference. In my time as Prime Minister of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, I gained a keen awareness of the value of the global economy and an understanding that now more than ever we are all interconnected. That is why I support events like this that offer the opportunity for individuals from across the globe to discuss issues that impact us all.

    Tony Blair

    • Jean Chrétien

      Founding Member of IFF
      Former Prime Minister of Canada

    It is my pleasure to welcome everyone in attendance at IFF. This forum addresses the financial challenges facing China as it expands its operations within the international community as a new WTO member, responding to an ever-changing, knowledge-based global economy. Participants will benefit from insights of officials and business leaders from around the world.

    • Gloria Macapagal Arroyo

      IFF Board Member
      Former President of the Philippines
      House Speaker of the Philippines
      Former Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Philippines

    I favor globalization and free trade. But I have learned that not all countries are at the same stage of economic, political and social development, so the ideal of globalization and free trade might at times have to be tempered by realities that exist within individual countries. Each country must judge for itself how it is to respond to globalization, and at what pace.

    Gloria Macapagal Arroyo

    • Yukio Hatoyama

      IFF Advisory Committee Member
      Former Prime Minister of Japan
      President of East Asian Community Institute

    I have been proposing for East Asian Community, it is also my dream and I see similar idea at the IFF. We have to cooperate across the region to bring happiness to all people. Building such a region, such countries, is very important for our world, our planet. I hope that China will play a key role in this process.

    Yukio Hatoyama

    • LI Xi

      Communist Party Secretary of Guangdong Province

    Based in Guangzhou, the IFF will help the Guangdong Province better integrate into the international financial cooperation and push forward the reform and opening-up to a higher level. IFF will provide huge space for financial innovation and development, and create more opportunities for exchanges, cooperation and common development. Through the forum, we hope you will get to know Guangdong, and Guangdong is willing to cooperate with you sincerely for mutual benefit.

    The International Finance Forum (IFF) is a long-standing, high-level platform for dialogue and communications, and a research network in the financial realm. In the past 15 years, more than 200 members of IFF have participated in its establishment and development and many international political and financial leaders shared their insights on the IFF annual meeting and the leadership dialogue. On behalf of IFF, I'd like to express my heartfelt thanks to them for their contributions. I count on your consistent support in the future, and I hope that everyone can use the platform of IFF to make friends, extensively exchange ideas, explore the challenges and opportunities facing the world, and seek a common path of cooperation and development.

    • LI Guixian

      The 1st President of IFF
      Former State Councilor
      Vice Chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference

    International Finance Forum (IFF) is a global high-level platform that brings together global financial leaders, senior government officials, world-renowned economists and financiers. It is also the top event in the international finance industry that unites international financial elites and promotes global financial exchanges, cooperation and development. The Forum is dedicated to promoting communication and dialogue between the government, the international financial community and enterprises, and promoting China's economic and financial development and global economic recovery. Each annual meeting has gained the close attention and unanimous recognition from the global financial community with profound and forward-looking themes, distinguished speakers and fruitful discussions.

    LI Guixian

    • Edmund Ho Hau-wah

      Vice Chairman of CPPCC National Committee
      Chief Executive of the Macao Special Administrative Region

    The International Finance Forum (IFF) has responded positively to the national strategy by building its permanent venue in the Greater Bay Area, and serving as one of the platforms for international exchanges and cooperation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and for jointly building an international financial hub in the region. I applaud the efforts made by the IFF. In the post-epidemic era, the international community will have a greater need for platforms like the IFF to link each other and explore new paths for sustainable global development based on consensus.

    Edmund Ho Hau-wah

    • Leung Chun-ying

    Leung Chun-ying

    • GU Shengzu

      Former IFF Vice President
      Former Vice Chairman of the National People's Congress of China

    The new globalization should insist on political consultation, economic cooperation, cultural exchange, innovation synergy and co-governance. It should promote the development of the world economy towards openness, inclusiveness, balance and win-win cooperation. The "Belt and Road" initiative was born in response to the trend of the times and the law of development. It is an important tool for the world to deal with counter-globalization, explore a new type of globalization and improve global governance.

    GU Shengzu

    • Christine Lagarde

      Former Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF)

    I appreciate greatly receiving your kind invitation to participate in the annual conference of the IFF. The current market turmoil and need to move ahead with reform of the global financial system make “The New Global Financial Architecture; Changes and Impacts” a timely and fully appropriate topic for discussion. We are undergoing major reforms of governance and crisis prevention and response tools to further safeguard the stability of the global financial system.

    • Leo Melamed

      IFF Founding Member
      IFF Advisory Committee Member
      "Father of Financial Futures"
      Chairman Emeritus of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME Group)

    I notice that China's economy is undergoing a change of what President Xi Jinping called as the new normal. Under the change, China’s economic growth rate is shifting from high to medium-high speed, China’s economic structure optimizes and upgrades, and China’s economy is shifting from factor-driven and investment-driven to innovation-driven. I applaud it, and I think it's the right thing to do!

    Leo Melamed

    • Charles H. Dallara

    Charles H. Dallara

    • Jim Yong Kim

      Former President of World Bank

    Investing in public health preparedness is of great importance in promoting global financial stability and resilient economic growth. I have spent my career on global health issues and have been focusing on economic development, financial inclusion and global financial stability in the past decade. I hope we can all recognize that, without the broad participation of the F20, it will be even more difficult to overcome the immediate Newcastle pneumonia outbreak and prevent future pandemics.

    Jim Yong Kim

    • Kristalina Georgieva

      Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund

    Both the International Finance Forum (IFF) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have the global vision. We are committed to promoting financial stability and sustainable economic growth. It is the vision and responsibility that bind us together.
