Fortescue Metals Group’s CEO Elizabeth Gaines has urged Australian firms to make the most of China’s Belt and Road Initiative. Countries that come under the BRI have a combined population of more than four billion. Gaines notes that steel is expected to underpin the infrastructure needed for the BRI, from which Fortescue could be expected to benefit as a major supplier of iron ore to China. Fortescue has been selling iron ore to China for 10 years, and Gaines notes that it supplies 17 per cent of China’s seaborne iron ore.

China wants to link its "silk road" infrastructure scheme with the Abbott Government’s plans to develop northern Australia. It sees Australia as one end of a maritime link in its ambitious One Belt One Road program to stimulate economic activity in Asia and the Pacific. Cooperation was discussed by Chinese and Australian ministers at a strategic economic dialogue in Canberra.
