Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank President-Designate Jin Liqun opened up on why his staff have only three-year contracts, details of an ethics committee to monitor the organization, and how his views were shaped by his 108-year old grandmother, in a speech in Beijing Tuesday.
Jin, who worked previously at the World Bank and Asian Development Bank on China’s behalf, said the new multilateral lender would be "squeaky clean." He outlined plans to ensure that goal and recalled how his grandmother had influenced his thinking on graft when he joined the World Bank.
