Xiamen National Accounting Institute (XNAI) is a vital training base for high-level financial, fiscal and accounting professionals in China, and home to the Research Center for the Belt and Road Financial and Economic Development initiated by the Chinese government. Founded in 2002 with the approval of the State Council, the Institute is directly under the Ministry of Finance and operates under the president responsibility system with the leadership of the Party Committee.

Since its establishment, nurtured by the care of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, and guided correctly by the Party Leadership Group of the Ministry of Finance, the Institute has adhered to its goal of building an internationally renowned accounting institute. Upholding its school motto — Integrity as Foundation, Professional Ethics as Priority, Abide by Accounting Standards, Reject False Accounting Entries, it proactively aligns itself with national strategic demands and the overall landscape of reform and development, and provides dedicated services to core fiscal and economic work. Rooted in China’s practical experience, keeping pace with international trends, and implementing a platform-based strategy to integrate educational resources, the Institute has built a full-time and part-time teaching faculty that closely links theory with practice, alongside a lean, highly efficient management team.

Nestled on the southern stretch of Huandao South Road in Xiamen, the Institute enjoys a picturesque mountain-and-sea setting blessed with unique natural scenery. It covers a land area of 335,000 square meters with a construction area of 87,900 square meters, and can accommodate 1,000 trainees for concurrent study and training.

The campus boasts a green space of 245,000 square meters, with over 6,780 arbors and shrubs plus more than 1,480 indoor potted flowers. Its green space ratio hits 73%, vegetation coverage reaches 85%, and the compliance rate for voluntary tree planting stands at 100%. A series of signature scenic spots have been built across the campus, including Rainbow Tree-lined Boulevard, Green Palm Grove, Kapok & Flying Swallows, Banyan & Rock Garden, Paulownia Bamboo Corridor, Winding Secluded Path, Osmanthus Welcome Pavilion, Five-Tier Mountain Waterfall, and Hundred-Ring Ancient Banyan.

The intelligent upgrading project covers more than 1,000 apartments, including student apartments, expert apartments and faculty apartments. XNAI has upgraded the living environment and renovated these residences into smart apartments. On the one hand, the transformation delivers superior living and learning conditions for faculty and trainees. On the other hand, it underpins the national high-end accounting talent cultivation program. To date, the Institute has hosted over 5,000 training sessions with nearly 600,000 participants in total, including an average of nearly 50,000 trainees per year over the past three years. Multiple apartment buildings are still under expansion to facilitate accommodation, study and training for trainees from all across the country.
