BEIJING (Xinhua/APP): China has allocated a special fund of 9.22 billion yuan (1.43 billion U.S. dollars) to develop inclusive finance for 2021, up 31.2 percent from the level in 2020, the Ministry of Finance (MOF) announced in a statement.
The move aims to support entrepreneurship and innovation and encourage local governments to promote small and micro financing, the statement added.
