Geneva, March 29, 2017 \u2014 Bloomberg kicked off its International China investor roadshow in Geneva today, which convened top Chinese and Swiss government officials, market participants and financial institutions. The global roadshow, themed \u201cChina: Navigate the New Silk Road\u201d<\/strong> starts in Geneva and will travel to over 10 cities this year to update investors and financial professionals on China\u2019s economic outlook and its future investment trends.<\/p>\n

Last year, Switzerland took an important step towards becoming a renminbi trading hub with the Zurich branch of China Construction Bank authorized to operate as a clearing bank for renminbi transactions. China is one of Switzerland\u2019s biggest trading partners, and Switzerland was the first country among the world\u2019s top 20 to have a free trade agreement with China.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Belt and Road Initiative is an important part of our effort to build partnerships in the region and the world,\u201d said Minister Jiang Duan, Permanent Mission of the People\u2019s Republic of China to the United Nation\u2019s office at Geneva and Other International Delegations in Switzerland. \u201cIt will help close the gap of development, speed up regional integration and bring about prosperity for all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other speakers at the event included senior executives from the Bank of China, China Construction Bank, K2K Capital and Lombard Odier. Panelists discussed China\u2019s marco-economic situation, its fixed income market opportunities, and foreign exchange and investment trends.<\/p>\n

\u201cBloomberg is in a unique position to help investors find new opportunities, by connecting Chinese companies to global markets and foreign investors to China\u2019s vast capital markets,\u201d said Ee Chuan Ng, Head of Bloomberg China. \u201cChina\u2019s initiatives such as the Belt and Road initiative aim to drive the next generation of Chinese economic growth, so it\u2019s important that global companies and investors in Switzerland understand the plan and the opportunities it presents.\u201d<\/p>\n

In its sixth year, Bloomberg\u2019s China investor roadshow will cover over 10 cities worldwide in 2017 including Hong Kong, Singapore, Sydney, Kuala Lumpur, Luxembourg, Frankfurt, London and New York.<\/p>\n
