In my latest Letter from the President, I write about China’s steady integration into the global economy and financial markets, and the massive infrastructure projects it has launched to protect its economic influence. I focus on the opportunities for Canadian firms presented by the Belt and Road Initiative – a massive infrastructure project linking China to central and south-east Asia and Europe. Financing the Belt and Road Initiative will take many different forms, including the monetization of resource assets. The needed valuations of these resource assets provide an attractive opportunity for many Canadian businesses with expertise in this area.
