UK trade secretary hosts Chinese delegation in bid to boost services
Peter Kyle and China’s Commerce Minister Wang Wentao will launch an initiative to support UK businesses expanding their exports into China
UK Trade Secretary Peter Kyle is seeking to boost UK services exports to China as he hosts a delegation from the country on Tuesday.
They will launch a “trade booster” initiative designed to support UK businesses expanding their exports into China during the visit.
Brompton Bikes and HSBC are among the British businesses attending, while firms JD.com and ICBC bank will represent China.
“The UK is a services superpower, and I want us to turbocharge our services exports and get more British engineers, architects, and accountants exporting their skills to China,” Kyle said.
“We need to be even more ambitious to promote secure and resilient growth for the next generation amidst a backdrop of global uncertainty.”
