The World Economic Forum in Davos isn’t just about snowy selfies 🏔️—it’s where finance leaders tackle the real challenges shaping our interconnected world. This year, CGTN sat down with Standard Chartered’s Benjamin Hung to decode the new rules of global trade amid shifting geopolitics.

Hung, the bank’s President of International, likened today’s economic landscape to a 'high-stakes game of Risk™️.' With supply chains rewiring and investments flowing to emerging markets like India and Southeast Asia, he emphasized China’s role as a stabilizer, noting its focus on green tech and EVs. 'Think of China’s economy as a marathon runner adjusting its pace,' he said, highlighting reforms to boost domestic growth.

For young entrepreneurs eyeing opportunities, Hung dropped a truth bomb 💣: 'The next big thing might be in Jakarta, not Jersey.' He also spotlighted Africa’s potential, calling it 'the ultimate growth hack' for patient investors.

One key takeaway? Despite digital currencies making headlines, Hung sees old-school trust as the glue holding global trade together. Looks like the future’s bright—but only if we play as a team. 🤝
