The China-LAC Cooperation Fund (abbreviated CLAC Fund) is a multilateral investment and financing cooperation fund established by the Chinese government. The CLAC Fund is divided into a US$2 billion co-financing facility and US$3 billion investment fund. Both the co-financing facility and fund support investments and projects in Latin America and the Caribbean.

It is one of three multilateral cooperation funds created by the Chinese government to advance the economic relationship between China and Latin America. The other two are Sino-Latin American Production Capacity Cooperation Investment Fund (China-LAC Industrial Cooperation Investment Fund) and the Special Loan Program for China-Latin America Infrastructure Project.
