Zhou Xiaochuan: Cross-Border Fraud and AI-Powered Scams Require New International Financial Governance Framework

According to former People's Bank of China Governor Zhou Xiaochuan, speaking at the 2026 Lujiazui Forum on June 17, current multilateral financial institutions lack adequate global governance frameworks to address emerging risks. Zhou highlighted three key gaps: inadequate representation for emerging markets in existing institutions, insufficient coordination of global financial infrastructure, and a regulatory vacuum in combating cross-border illegal activities. He noted that telecommunications fraud, cryptocurrency-enabled money laundering, and AI-powered scams—increasingly prevalent in Southeast Asia—currently fall outside the scope of existing international supervisory bodies such as FATF, which focuses on anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing. Zhou called for expanded international cooperation to address these governance deficiencies.
