The Chinese-led institution cannot only already lend up to $250bn for infrastructure and other projects. It also wants to expand into a global body to rival long-established multilateral lenders. 亚洲基础设施投资银行（AIIB，中文简称“亚投行”）是一个有着很大抱负的新机构。这个由中国主导的机构不仅能为基础设施及其他项目提供多达2500亿美元贷款，它还希望扩展成一个全球机构，与那些历史悠久的多边金融机构一争高低。 At the same time, it is trying to cultivate a distinctive modus operandi.
