Looking Past the Crises: Europe, Hong Kong and the Belt and Road
Belt & Road Series
Europe has been at the heart of the Mainland’s Belt and Road Initiative ever since its inception. Despite the pandemic putting some plans on hold, EU-BRI cooperation continues to flourish. Iris Pang, Chief Economist for Greater China from ING Wholesale Banking, spoke at the Chamber’s webinar organized by the Belt and Road Working Group on 19 June. She said that investments into the BRI were predominantly in the transport and logistics sector. Europe benefited from the BRI though enhanced infrastructure, access to financing and strategic partnerships for trading with China.
Also speaking at the webinar, Krisztina Dóra Koletár, Trade Commissioner from the Consulate General of Hungary in Hong Kong, gave a brief background of Hungary and its role in the BRI, as well as how Hong Kong businesses should take advantage of the BRI to connect with Hungary.
