Cross-Border Finance Platforms Offer One-Stop Services for Firms Going Global

Professional service providers from fields including finance, law, accounting, intellectual property and human resources are offering one-stop professional services for companies expanding overseas. Cross-border fund settlement is a fundamental and critical part of trade in services. Cross-border financial services at the 2026 exhibition showcased new developments in cross-border settlement, trade finance and currency hedging.

At the 2026 China International Fair for Trade in Services, some exhibitors said that in the past, overseas expansion involved cumbersome payment communication, slow capital flows and difficult currency hedging. Digital solutions from financial institutions are driving cross-border finance to evolve from the traditional model of simple remittance and foreign exchange settlement toward full-chain, one-stop services. The Jiaoyin Hangmaotong platform launched by Bank of Communications Beijing Branch addresses the common needs of foreign trade companies by connecting order flows, logistics, capital flows and information flows, integrating cross-border settlement, trade finance and currency hedging. Using a digital and intelligent system, the platform can automatically convert Chinese payment collection information into an English payment collection document bearing the bank's electronic seal, which can be generated with one click and sent to overseas clients to improve the efficiency of cross-border payment communication.
