THE 7TH GLOBAL RESEARCH NETWORK
BELT AND ROAD INITIATIVE (BRI) CONFERENCE 2023
"Achieving the ambitions of the Belt and Road Initiative will require equally ambitious reforms from participating countries. Improvements in data reporting and transparency—especially around debt—open government procurement, and adherence to the highest social and environmental standards will help significantly."
Ceyla Pazarbasioglu
Vice President for Equitable Growth, Finance, and Institutions, World Bank Group
