London policy chief urges B&R action

City can provide invaluable help in rollout of drive, says new appointee

The City of London Corp's new policy chief, Catherine McGuinness, said she wants the capital's financial services companies to engage more with the Belt and Road Initiative, so the business district can maintain its financial strength amid Brexit uncertainties.

The City of London Corp is the municipal governing body of the City of London, the historic center of London and the location of much of the UK's financial sector - as opposed to the wider London local government, run by the Greater London Authority.
