On the afternoon of July 26, a sudden flash flood, triggered by short-duration heavy rainfall, struck the Shuangshimen scenic area in Weiyuan County, Dingxi City, Gansu Province, trapping some camping tourists. In response to the sudden disaster, the Dingxi branch of the Agricultural Bank of China quickly activated its emergency response plan for flood season contingencies, aiming to reinforce the financial defense line for disaster prevention and relief.
Following the disaster, the Dingxi branch of the Agricultural Bank of China immediately conducted a thorough safety sweep and inspection. The primary focus was on verifying the safety status of branches, employees, and customers near the affected areas. A comprehensive hazard check was also carried out on key facilities within its jurisdiction, including computer rooms, power distribution rooms, self-service equipment, and warehouses, to ensure the safe operation of infrastructure and check waterproofing and drainage systems.
In the core disaster zone, the Dingxi branch set up a temporary emergency service point. It urgently allocated essential supplies such as drinking water and instant food, providing provisions, rest areas, and consultation services for stranded residents and rescue workers, demonstrating the bank's human touch. A "green channel" for financial services was established, prioritizing emergency transactions such as disaster relief fund transfers, urgent remittances, lost card reissuance, and cash withdrawals. The bank ensured timely fund allocation and rapid fulfillment of customer needs, while actively guiding clients to use online channels to maintain uninterrupted financial services during the flood season.
Simultaneously, the branch closely coordinated with local finance, emergency management, and medical departments. It tracked disaster relief fund transfers, government-enterprise cooperation, and emergency support efforts in real-time, fully cooperating with the unified government dispatch to ensure seamless support services. The Dingxi branch of the Agricultural Bank of China will continue to focus on the financial needs of the disaster-stricken area, comprehensively applying relief and assistance policies to support local post-disaster reconstruction and promote the swift restoration of normal production and living order.
