澳洲罗伊研究院发布最新报告显示,中国对太平洋地区的贷款正在持续减少1。根据报告,澳洲已逐步取代中国成为该地区最大的贷款方,2024年澳洲提供的援助金额占全年区域融资总额的37%,远超中国的6%1。同期,纽西兰的贷款占比为11%,美国为8%,日本为3%1。
澳洲通过多项机制加强在太平洋地区的融资存在。该国于2019年成立的澳洲太平洋基础建设融资机制已承诺超过10亿澳元的贷款及超过8.5亿澳元的补助1。自2021年以来,澳洲政府另签署34.4亿澳元的新贷款协议1。报告主要作者杜克表示,中国对太平洋地区的贷款呈现"显著减少的转变"1。不过,东加王国等少数太平洋国家仍在应对中国贷款带来的财务影响1。
Australia has emerged as the dominant lender to the Pacific region, according to a new report from the Lowy Institute.1 In 2024, Australian aid and loans accounted for 37% of total regional financing, significantly outpacing China's contribution of 6%.1 New Zealand provided 11% of regional financing, followed by the United States at 8% and Japan at 3%.1
The Australian Pacific Infrastructure Financing Facility (AIFFP), established in 2019, has committed over AUD 1 billion in loans and more than AUD 850 million in grants to the region.1 Since 2021, the Australian government has signed AUD 3.44 billion in new loan agreements with Pacific nations.1 According to Duke, the principal author of the Lowy Institute report, China's lending to the Pacific has undergone a marked reduction.1
Despite the broader trend, some Pacific island nations, including the Kingdom of Tonga, have continued to struggle with the financial burden of Chinese loans.1
