Asia Society Policy Institute President Kevin Rudd, former Prime Minister of Australia, conducted an interview in Washington DC on 13 April, 2016 with Mr Jin Liqun, President of Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). 

During the interview, Mr Jin, an expert international banker and aficionado of Shakespeare and history, was very upfront that the AIIB wanted to learn and partner with Bretton Woods institutions like the World Bank, the IMF and the Asian Development Bank and to develop a new lean, clean and green global financial institution with shared accountability and inclusive partnerships with all stakeholders, including the United States.
