Belt and Road initiative (BRI) by China is expected to bring strategic changes in different parts of the world. One of the key projects of BRI is China Pakistan Economic Corridor. The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA, UK), a global body of accountants with 277,000 members and 544,000 future members engaged us to conduct research by interviewing over 500 finance professionals, industry and academic , smart finance professionals to find out: What skills will be required in future to prepare for such change?

The Problem
How to make a smart finance professional think about the future? The tag line of ACCA is ‘Think Ahead’. Thus thinking about future and brining out information about the skill set which will be needed requires some research, discussions and analysis.
The Solution
Based on the extensive research, a publication was put together ‘The Benefits of Modern Silk Road – China Pakistan Economic Corridor’. The research paper was published in English and Chinese. It is available in the publication section of the website.
