The 2nd AIIB Annual Meeting was held in the Republic of Korea as an international forum to evaluate the operations of the AIIB and discuss short and long-term strategies and challenges. At the Meeting, the AIIB emphasized the keyword "Lean (efficient)" in its business operations, presenting the core principles of its short- to long-term strategy as "Lean (efficient), Clean (ethical) and Green (environment-friendly)" operations. The AIIB is expected to respond to new global challenges by constructing infrastructures, while aligning its operations with the core principles of a lean, clean and green organization, thus aiming to develop into a new type of MDB appropriate for the 21st century. However, in order to develop into such a 21st century MDB model, the AIIB will have to overcome many difficulties. First, the AIIB needs to handle the internal capability problem. Second, the AIIB should overcome the profitability problem. Third, there are the institutional limitations. Fourth, it will be important to control the potential conflict breaking out between member states. Fifth, there is the issue of China's influence. The question of how China exercises its influence will be a measure of AIIB's progress toward a truly international cooperation body.
The AIIB is also expected to hold discussions on how to upgrade the existing Bretton Woods system as China-led international financial institutions such as the AIIB, NDB and Silk Road Fund continue to grow.
