SINGAPORE (July 30): Nearly one in three multinational corporations are currently involved in projects related to China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), according to preliminary findings from a joint survey by the Singapore Business Federation (SBF) and accounting firm PwC.
Close to half of the 50 companies surveyed also report having plans to embark on BRI-related projects in the next three years.
A similar study, administered just two years ago in 2017 by the SBF and the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), found that only 12.5% of companies were involved in BRI-related projects.
