In 2021, CDB focused on consolidating poverty alleviation achievement, all-round promotion of rural revitalization, and development of key fields such as agricultural modernization, agricultural infrastructure, distinctive industries and follow-up development after resettlement to facilitate development of rural industries and green agriculture.

CDB provided consulting services to related key areas, formulated the rural revitalization financing plan centered upon key counties in national rural revitalization, old revolutionary base areas and common prosperity demonstration zones, and organized four sessions of rural revitalization symposiums for 384 local officials from 50 counties (county-level cities and districts).
Serving as the main channel financing affordable housing, CDB facilitated improvement of the housing guarantee system consisting mainly of government-subsidized rental housing, public rental housing and housing with ownership shared between local governments and individuals. It focused on financing government-subsidized rental housing and renovation of urban old residential areas and steadily advanced renovation of shanty town areas.
Deeply implementing the Healthy China Initiative and the strategy addressing aging of population, CDB helped build a high-quality medical and health service system by promoting more balanced distribution of quality medical resources and improving the weak parts in primary medical and health care.
