The two-hour virtual meeting included a substantive and wide-ranging discussion on domestic and global financial stability, financial supervision and regulation, sustainable finance, and anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT). U.S. o icials also frankly raised areas of disagreement. The meeting was led by senior o icials from the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Peopleʼs Bank of China, with participation by other regulatory agencies. The FWG was launched last month alongside the Economic Working Group, following Secretary Janet L. Yellenʼs trip to Beijing in July. These working groups carry out President Bidenʼs directive last year to deepen communication between the two countries. Both working groups report directly to Secretary Yellen and Vice Premier He Lifeng. ### https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1842 1/1
