Taiwan's finance chief heads delegation to APEC finance ministers meeting in Hong Kong

Taiwan's Finance Minister Chuang Tsui-yun is heading a delegation that includes Financial Supervisory Commission Vice Chairman Chen Yen-liang to the APEC finance ministers' meeting in Hong Kong, which begins on Tuesday. The two-day summit will bring together finance leaders from participating economies to review the global and regional economic and financial outlook. Taiwan's team will also hold talks with officials from the International Monetary Fund, the Asian Development Bank and the APEC Business Advisory Council.

During the sessions, Chuang will present Taiwan's experience in fostering economic growth, reducing household burdens, and modernising tax administration through artificial intelligence. The delegation will further outline plans to attract private capital for digital infrastructure and promote financial innovation and inclusion. The ministry reaffirmed Taiwan's commitment to engage in APEC's regional financial policy discussions as "Chinese Taipei" and to support sustainable growth across the Asia-Pacific.
