Recently, the 5th China–Brazil Green Finance and Sustainable Agriculture Cooperation Annual Dialogue was held in São Paulo, Brazil. The event was jointly organized by the Beijing Institute of Green Finance and Sustainable Development, the Brazil–China Business Council, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

As the core demonstration area for green finance innovation in Beijing, the Lize Financial Business District showcased its “Finance + Technology + Ecology” green development practices, promoting international cooperation in green finance and sustainable agriculture. During the dialogue, Guolian Co., Ltd.’s Grain & Oil Duoduo E-commerce Division, based in Fengtai District, signed agreements totaling USD 3.5 million with three Brazilian companies, covering the export of drone-based crop protection equipment and agricultural product procurement. Plans were also announced to establish a China–Brazil sesame and legume exchange platform in Fengtai District.

As a core area for green finance development in Fengtai District, the Lize Financial Business District has continuously strengthened its green development foundation. Leveraging its dual advantages as a national-level fintech innovation demonstration zone and Beijing ecological demonstration area, the district has attracted over 1,400 high-quality enterprises, nearly 40% of which are financial institutions.

In providing financial services to the real economy, Lize Financial Business District has launched several “first-in-the-world” and “first-in-China” initiatives, including the first market-linked carbon reduction index swap transaction, the first certified green bond combining drones and carbon satellites, and the first OTC option linked to European carbon emissions, among more than 50 innovative cases and financial products. The district also initiated the ESG Low-Carbon Finance Alliance and the Lize Cross-Border Financial Alliance, building an ecosystem of collaborative partners and forming the distinctive “Fengtai model” of green finance. These mature financial ecosystems and clear industrial guidance provide reliable models and practical platforms for cross-border green cooperation.
