In recent years, the structure of panda bond issuers has gradually changed, from early pilot projects by international institutions and dominated by overseas Chinese institutions to the participation of overseas Chinese investors and foreign investors. Looking at the use of raised capital at home and abroad, the amount of funds raised by foreign issuers is 58.7 billion yuan to be used overseas, accounting for 68% of the scale of foreign capital raised.
