Beijing war auf einem Lendenspray und jetzt haben seine Verhörer es schwierig, ihre Steuern zu bezahlen. Also 80 Prozent des China-Overseas-Lending-Portfolios unterstützen gerade Länder in finanziellem Schmerz.

So, I mean, here's the thing. Beijing is not going to stand by and watch its flagship global infrastructure initiative crash and burn. The Chinese authorities have already launched a far-reaching effort to de-risk Belt and Road, and they call it BRI 2.0. Beijing is scanning its global portfolio and firefighting in response to crises.

Wir sehen immer mehr westliche Verkaufsbanken, Deutsche Bank, ING Bank, HSBC, die in diesen größeren Lohn-Syndikaten mit chinesischen Banken teilnehmen, sowie multilaterale Institutionen wie die Europäische Bank für Reconstruktion und Entwicklung in London.

The so-called good borrowers are not governments, you know, because there's so much debt distress in the developing world. So what's happening is big Chinese state-owned companies are first securing loans from Chinese state-owned commercial banks. Then they're saying, I'm going to issue a subsidiary loan to the government of Nicaragua, as an example.

And so when the company essentially becomes the bank, they want extra money. ... in place. They're doubling up or tripling up on safeguards. And they're saying, look, cash collateral is not enough. I need that. Plus, I need you, the borrower, to buy a credit insurance policy. And that additional credit insurance policy might be worth 5 to 7 percent of the nominal value of the loan.

We are seeing a marked shift towards projects that are focused on the extraction and export of a small set of critical minerals that are necessary to fuel the clean energy transition. So we're talking about copper, cobalt, lithium, rare earth minerals and a couple of others. So that is a key feature of Belt and Road 2.0.

And Chinese companies are also trying to gobble up market share in a variety of renewable energy sectors, whether that's solar, wind, hydro. There's a concerted effort by the banks and the companies to cement the competitiveness of Chinese companies around the globe in these clean energy sectors.

They have also tried to muscle their way to the front of the repayment line by requiring something that their competitors do not require. And that is that governments keep cash collateral in lender-controlled escrow accounts that Beijing can unilaterally debit with a keystroke, right? They could just grab that cash and pay themselves in the event of default.

I would say that they are still actively firefighting and they're going to be firefighting for many years to come. They're doing serial bailouts year after year.
