The Belt and Road Initiative is "possibly one of the most important thing for the future world trade," he said.
Proposed by China in 2013, the Belt and Road Initiative aims to build trade and infrastructure networks connecting Asia with Europe and Africa along the ancient Silk Road routes.
Nikhil Rathi, chief executive of the London Stock Exchange Plc, said China is one of the most exciting capital markets in the world, and is on track to be among the largest.
"We are embarking at the London Stock Exchange and with our friends in Shanghai, under the umbrella of China-UK governmental cooperation, on the Shanghai-London Stock Connect. We are looking forward to further milestones on that project this year. This is a project which will allow global investors to benefit from China's growth through London, and UK-listed companies will be able to access Chinese investors directly," said Rathi.
Chinese Ambassador to Britain Liu Xiaoming, among the dignitaries attending the forum, said China has made great achievements thanks to its down-to-earth approach, undaunted courage, and an open and inclusive attitude.
"It was a hard lesson from recent history," said the ambassador, referring to the seclusive and closed-door policies China adopted during the Qing Dynasty which led to its backwardness and ultimately aggression by foreign powers.
The ambassador reiterated China's determination to continue its reform and opening up efforts, against tides of protectionism.
