Zao Shang Hao!易行长,刘部长,尊敬的嘉宾,女士们、先生们——早上好! Zao Shang Hao!I would like to thank the People’s Bank of China and the Chinese Ministry of Finance for organizing this important event.首先,我想对中国人民银行和中国财政部组织这场重要的会议表示感谢。As we meet during this beautiful springtime weather it brings to mind the words of the Chinese proverb, “ The whole year must be planned for in the spring.”在这个美丽的春天相聚,让人想起一句中国谚语——“一年之计在于春”。Over the next three days we will consider the ways the Belt and Road Initiative — the BRI—can help better connect the world physically and financially for years to come. It is fitting that we begin these conversations with financial connectivity. Why? Because history teaches us that physical and financial connectivity go hand-in-hand.在接下来的三天中,我们将讨论未来若干年“一带一路”倡议将如何增进世界各国在基础设施和金融层面的互联互通。我们不妨从金融互联互通谈起。为什么?因为历史告诉我们,基础设施和金融的互联互通是相伴而行的。Think of the original Silk Road.

I want to highlight two today: increased capital mobility and increased financial inclusion.在现代背景下,更深层次的金融互联互通可以通过几个重要渠道来实现。我今天想强调两个渠道:加强资本流动和改善金融包容性。1. Increased Capital Mobility1. 加强资本流动First, enabling capital to flow more freely.第一,确保资本更自由地流动。Allowing capital to flow across borders can help support inclusive growth. How? By enhancing investments in infrastructure, manufacturing, and even health care.允许资本跨境流动能帮助支持包容性增长。如何支持?通过促进基础设施、制造业甚至医疗行业的投资。Right now, foreign direct investment —FDI — is only 1.9 percent of GDP in developing countries. Before the global financial crisis, it was at 2.5 percent. Making progress on major infrastructure needs will require capital flows to rise again a...
