Abstract

The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank ("AIIB")'s second annual meeting was held on June 16-18, 2017 in South Korea's southern island of Jeju. The attendees included over 20 finance ministers of the 77 approved AIIB members, such as Australia, China, Georgia, India, Indonesia, and Laos. In its second annual meeting, the AIIB adopted resolutions accepting three new members - Tonga, Argentina, and Madagascar. Thus, its total approved membership has reached 80, surpassing that of the Asian Development Bank ("ADB").
