HM Treasury ministers and officials meet regularly with representative of the government of China in the course of international business, on a bilateral and multilateral basis.

Agreements between the Treasury and the Chinese government are usually made at the UK-China Economic and Financial Dialogue (EFD). Given an EFD has not occurred in the period from January 2020, no agreements have been made between the Treasury and the Chinese government during this period.
