The World Bank has made a significant decision to phase out its lending operations in China, with a target completion date set for June 30, 2026.

This move comes after years of pressure from the Trump administration, which has been vocal about the need for changes in how international financial institutions operate in relation to China.

The implications of this decision could affect China's access to international funding and may reshape the landscape of global development financing.
