- The Hoover Project on China’s Global Sharp Power held: Sovereign Funds: How the Communist Party of China Finances Its Global Ambitions on January 18, 2024 from 12:00 - 1:30 PM PT at the Herbert Hoover Memorial Building, Room 330.
No other country in history has so rapidly transformed its economy from being among the world’s poorest and most isolated to the world’s second largest economies, at the heart of the global supply chain, and a leading source of international investment capital. For the last two decades, China’s sovereign funds have played a significant role in China’s economy, mitigating financial crises and tempering exogenous shocks. In this talk, Zoe will discuss how sovereign funds have supported China’s industrial policies by financing the state’s procurement of strategic overseas assets, bankrolling Chinese enterprises’ mergers and acquisitions abroad, and sponsoring the development of indigenous Chinese technology startups. As Zoe makes clear, sovereign funds are not just for oil exporters. The CPC is a leader in both foreign exchange reserves investment and economic statecraft, using state capital to encourage domestic economic activity and create spheres of influence worldwide.

Microphone management is intolerable with people eating coughing, utensils clanking and room echo.
Who the hell thought it a good idea to present this whilst watching people eat their lunches?
Blowing nose into live mike??!!
Mics aren’t good
Love the format....it reminds me of my meetings. I know that many viewers sont like it, but I guess they dont have the same experience and memories I do. Thank you
Bravo, well done!
nice junior achievement presentation
Half-time, and this seems pretty good, and balanced.
rude
Look at those with a peaceful cooperative foreign policy, juxtaposed to those who want to rule over the whole world 🌎 ...I don't even need to mention names. 🤷♂️
War Criminals Bush and Cheney might disagree.
Saying they will fail is looking at the situation through a western lense 1:17:41
Let's just face it- we've been fairly out manoeuvred, and this is the cost of greed 1:31:21
She talked of CIC as if it were a legit financial institution. How funny.
Define "legit". Here's my definition: If you hold (conservatively estimated) $4trillionUSD ( @49:35 ) in your slush fund you automatically become "legit" on any world market stage.
Please include microphones with mute buttons in which you activate if you want to speak. Honestly I am surprised someone would blow their nose multiple times during a discussion when another professional is speaking. Shows a lack of self awareness or respect for the speaker.
1st 🎉
1:23:33 are we gonna talk about ned funding to cause trouble for China 🇨🇳?...
300 million or something.🤷♂️
All are corrupt- but there's levels, like anything. 1:05:45
China will be everyone's saviour, and the smart will adopt a market economy. 🤷♂️
1:18:54 add it up and it's insignificant, besides- they felt the hate, and divested in American property.
Accent is not good and not at all clear, also sounds like the speaker is pretty fumed and in hurry as if chinese authorities are on their way to capture her
Pretty gd but.
