Abstract "This book looks at how Chinese companies optimize investment opportunities while implementing the Belt and Road (B&R) Initiative. Specifically, it studies five high-profile infrastructure projects undertaken by Chinese firms. Going in-depth through case-study analysis, this book fills a gap by providing the background stories of these projects. By applying a case study approach to five notable and representative B&R projects including Hambantota Port, Port de Djibouti, and China-Belarus Industrial Park, it is found that Chinese firm strategies to implement the B&R Initiative have been designed to achieve property rights security, reduction of transaction costs, and internalization of overflow benefits from expanded business scope or multiple business lines. With first-hand data from host stakeholders and on-ground project managers, this book is a highly relevant and valuable text for policy makers and researchers hoping to understand the policy impact and implications of B&R investments on targeted countries"-- Provided by publisher.
