Zhao Jianping

Chairman, China-Africa Development Fund

China Development Bank Vice-Governor Zhao Jianping has taken the reins of the China-Africa Development Fund from CDB colleague Gao Jian. Zhao's career is marginally more cosmopolitan than that of the man he quietly replaced in March. Zhao earned a master's at the Management School of the University of Texas, United States. He then worked as a manager at the Bank of China's Hong Kong and Macau office from 1993 to 1998. Zhao returned to Beijing to become Vice-Director of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange before joining the CDB as Vice-Governor in 2001.
