Business Collaboration 

CITIC Limited has established a “1+N+N” regional synergy organisational system, comprising the “Headquarters Synergy Committee+Onshore Regional Branches+Offshore Regional Branches”. Through a full-process closed-loop synergy mechanism, we promoted mutually beneficial cooperation with strategic partners including local governments, enterprises and financial institutions, continuously enriching and refining CITIC’s unique business model and core competitiveness that distinguishes it from other large enterprises and financial institutions.

Harnessing CITIC’s distinctive strengths to build “a bridge” connecting the world in the new era

Guided by the service brand of “CITIC, Your Trusted Partner for Going Global and Coming to China”, we build on CITIC’s international strengths to promote Chinese high-level opening-up and build “a bridge” connecting the world in the new era. By introducing high-quality global resources to support regional development, we spearheaded a range of collaborative projects aligned with local positioning and facilitated cross-industry cooperation. These efforts have earned strong recognition from local governments and foreign enterprises. By driving local development, we unlocked significant opportunities and strengthened our market presence. As a result, CITIC has developed a distinctive synergy model and competitive advantages.

Deepening partnership with strategic customers

Adhering to the “One CITIC, One Customer” philosophy, we continue to advance a synergy-driven model in which multiple subsidiaries pool their strengths to deliver initiatives that cannot be undertaken by a single subsidiary alone. Through concerted efforts and complementary advantages, this model fosters win-win outcomes while continuously empowering our subsidiaries to drive business development.

We have worked with our corporate clients to carry out a number of projects including the industrial chain integration model for COSCO Shipping, the complementary advantages and mutual support model for China Energy Engineering Corporation, the strategic alignment-driven financial services model for China Railway Signal & Communication Corporation, the strategy-led joint innovation model for Huawei and the ecosystem development model for the robotics industry. We deepened strategic cooperation with China Yajiang Group, leveraging our edge in comprehensive financial services, industry integration and technology empowerment, and tailor-made a “Yajiang Solution” for the construction of the Yajiang Hydropower Project. In our collaboration with local governments, we have established a model for central SOE–local cooperation by carefully planning joint initiatives and addressing the core needs of our subsidiaries. Through multi-dimensional initiatives, including financial opening and innovation, industrial synergistic development, green energy cultivation, technology integration and empowerment, and global resource connectivity, we are comprehensively contributing to the construction of Hainan Free Trade Port.


Foreign Enterprises’ China Tours
In 2025, CITIC collaborated with various local governments to jointly host a series of events, namely the Nanjing Tour for German Enterprises, the Guangdong Tour for Japanese Enterprises, Multinational Corporations Invest in China — Choose Shaanxi and the Chongqing Tour for European Advanced Manufacturing Enterprises. We also continued to advance the implementation of outcomes from the 2024 events including the Chongqing Tour for German Advanced Manufacturing Enterprises and the Hunan Tour for Strategic Shareholders, providing tangible and effective support for the high-quality development of local economies.

CITIC Limited adheres to the principle of “Give-and-Take for Shared Prosperity”. Focusing on local development positioning and the development direction of strategic industries, we leverage CITIC’s strengths to meet local development needs and deliver precision empowerment. We have developed a portfolio of innovative synergy models including services across “Four-Sphere Financial Consulting”, “Chongqing Autos Going Global Partnership”, “Specialised and Sophisticated Enterprises Collaboration”, “Fast Track for the Introduction of Foreign Brands” and “Ecosystem for Multinational Enterprises”. These models help local governments stabilise foreign trades and investments to create business opportunities for our subsidiaries in terms of key accounts, capital, clients and projects.
