CDB Innovation Sector Loans

CDB Innovation Sector Loans sits under China Development Bank, a state-funded development finance institution established in 1994 and overseen by the State Council. The channel serves Chinese companies expanding abroad and supports Belt and Road work, so its public role is policy lending rather than competitive grantmaking. It is designed for long-term financing in sectors tied to national development priorities. The product set is made up of debt and trade-finance instruments, including foreign currency project loans, liquidity loans, offshore RMB loans, buyer's credit, vendor's credit, syndication, export and import factoring, leasing factoring, bill credit, bill discounting, forfaiting, and overseas refinancing. CDB's overseas network reaches 707 correspondent banks in 106 countries and regions, which gives the channel reach beyond mainland China. The record points to large enterprises, foreign governments, and financial institutions as the natural counterparties. This route fits infrastructure, equipment manufacturing, agriculture, energy, and livelihood projects that match national development priorities and can carry relationship-based financing. It is not a grant route, and the public materials do not describe open calls or award rounds. Applicants need a bankable capital need and policy alignment rather than a competitive proposal package.

Each grant below is a distinct funding opportunity with its own eligibility, scope, and deliverables.
