The Beijing-based Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank is in talks to provide a second loan guarantee deal to the World Bank, a move that would deepen the lenders’ partnership and allow the Washington-based institution to increase lending.The talks follow a similar deal last year, when the AIIB agreed to issue $1bn in credit guarantees against sovereign-backed loans made by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the World Bank’s lending arm. That deal was intended to enable the IBRD to squeeze more out of its cash-constrained balance sheet.
总部设在北京的亚洲基础设施投资银行(AIIB,简称亚投行)正就向世界银行(World Bank)提供第二笔贷款担保协议进行谈判,此举将加深两家银行的合作关系,并使总部位于华盛顿的世界银行能够增加贷款。
