On December 12, 2025, under the guidance and promotion of the People's Bank of China Tianjin Branch, Ping An Bank Tianjin Branch successfully launched the FT account system, becoming the 8th bank in Tianjin to launch an FT account. This marks the continuous improvement of Tianjin's financial innovation service network, the further enhancement of cross-border financial infrastructure, and the richer supply of financial elements for regional opening-up.

In 2025, the Tianjin Branch of the People's Bank of China will thoroughly implement the work deployment of financial support for the high-quality development of Tianjin. In accordance with the principle of "mature conditions, stable and orderly" promoted by the head office of the People's Bank of China, high-level coordination, "one-on-one" full process guidance, and "point-to-point" continuous promotion will be carried out to solidly promote the successful launch of FT accounts by six banks. At present, Tianjin is the only pilot area for FT accounts in the north. The expansion of FT accounts has strengthened cross-border financial infrastructure and provided important financial support for the financial opening of Tianjin and even the northern region. The advantage of "two markets, two resources" in FT accounts provides the real economy with more intensive account fund management, more flexible exchange rate selection, and more diversified financing support, helping market entities increase competitiveness in the global economic cycle.

Next, the Tianjin Branch of the People's Bank of China will continue to anchor the fundamental goal of serving the real economy, continuously release the advantages of FT account policies, seize the major strategic opportunities of coordinated development in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, and make every effort to build a highland for the enrichment of financial resources in the north, contributing to the high-quality development of Tianjin's finance.
