Brexit making UK more attractive to Chinese companies

Dozens of Chinese companies believe the United Kingdom's impending departure from the European Union will lead to more investment opportunities, according to a new survey.

The Ipsos Mori poll assesses the attractiveness of Europe and the UK as investment destinations. The majority of Chinese respondents said they were more likely to make future investments in the UK because of Brexit.

A total of 360 companies from China, Germany, France, the UK, and the United States participated in the poll, which was commissioned by Brussels-based investment trade association Invest Europe.
