UK Prime Minister David Cameron and Chinese Premier Li Keqiang have signed £14bn worth of trade and investment deals that will help to safeguard and create jobs.
The UK is the most popular European destination for Chinese investment. In 2013/14 alone the country benefited from more than £8bn, creating or safeguarding more than 6,000 jobs.
In 2012 to 2013, Chinese investment in the UK created at least 1,000 new jobs and safeguarded just under 2,500 jobs.
In the past year, around 1,000 jobs have been created or safeguarded from four projects alone.
The annual UK-China summit takes place just six months after the Prime Minister’s visit to China and with bilateral trade at record levels – up by 8% overall in 2013.
