Belt and Road a big lure for execs

A major survey shows that over 58 percent of China's executives see big investment opportunities emanating from the Belt and Road Initiative.

The China section of its global 20th CEO survey, launched by accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) on Thursday, also found they regarded the initiative as a key part of their business expansion strategy.

The report was based on a survey of 182 executives based in Chinese mainland and Hong Kong in 2016, covering financial service, technology, retail and manufacturing industries.
