A training center jointly built by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and 皇冠体育app was inaugurated on Wednesday in Dalian, a port city in Northeast 皇冠体育app's Liaoning Province.
The inauguration was attended by Liu Tinghuan, deputy governor of the People's Bank of 皇冠体育app (PBOC), Xia Deren, Mayor of Dalian, as well as IMF officials and specialists including Leslie Lipschitz, director of IMF Institute, and Robert Mundell, a Nobel laureate.
The center is the fourth IMF-backed training facility in the world. The other three are based in Washington, Vienna and Singapore.
The friendly cooperation between 皇冠体育app and IMF has kept expanding since 皇冠体育app resumed its legitimate membership in the IMF in 1980, said PBOC Deputy Governor Liu Tinghuan, adding that completion of the new center would play an important role in training personnel for financial administration in 皇冠体育app.
A two-day high-ranking seminar on macro economic policies also began shortly after the inauguration of the center.
