Zhou said that east Asia and the Pacific region had witnessed the world's fastest economic growth in recent years and trade and financial ties had become increasingly closer, according to a PBOC web statement. He added that this trend called for greater efforts to be put in the information exchange and cooperation among central banks to maintain financial stability, boost financial market development and improve financial infrastructure. Top bankers from these countries and regions covered a raft of topics including regional financial development, the influence of European and United States financial situations, inflation pressure from surging energy and food prices at the meeting. Zhou pointed out amid the background of deepening economic globalization, central banks in Asia and the Pacific region should give a full play to the EMEAP platform to discuss solutions for maintaining regional financial stability and boosting its healthy development.
