CGTN EUROPE
The China Investment Corporation - better known as the CIC, is the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, managing an impressive $1.35 trillion in assets. Its carefully chosen investments in various resources and cutting-edge technologies are strategically aimed at bolstering China's global influence.
But just what are they investing in? And how big can they really get?
In this episode, Juliet Mann speaks to Zongyuan Zoe Lui, a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and author of "Sovereign Funds," which delves into the CIC's journey, and Michael Maduell, President of the Sovereign Wealth Fund Institute.
