Profiting From Financing Global Economic Development Initiatives ?
December 8, 2023
Throughout history there have been attempts, some very successful, to broaden the scope of economic development on a global scale.? The first such notable attempt was implemented by the Han Dynasty around 130 B.C. when they China opened trade with the west.? The Silk Road, as it was called, connected China and the far east with the Middle East and Europe.? The Silk Road was a trade route and it stayed in existence until 1453 when the Ottoman Empire boycotted trade with China.? It has been close to 600 years since the Silk Road was active.? During the time of its use the primary route of the Silk Road was enhanced by many side roads that led to different markets and expanded the economic capacities of many different markets.? The concept of trade routes that enhance economic growth has been proven to be a legitimate goal for governments of all persuasions.
Germany had been stung by its defeat in WWI with sanctions and some of their territory lost.? Germany wanted to regain its power and economic strength and Hitler and the Nazi party decided to take it back by force.? In the early 1930’s Germany initiated a plan to take back a good part of the geography of Europe and put its war machine in action.? However, WWII did not go well for Germany and Europe was in ruins after the war ended.? Losing the entire purchasing power of a continent is not a recipe for global economic strength.
In addition to the upheavals to the global economic and financial systems caused by conflict and national policy, changes to the financial system to meet new challenges have occurred.? While less public than a world war, significant changes to the global financial system whether it be new rules, regulatory authority or procedures and methods for conducting financial transactions have occurred.? One of those was the Private Placement Program that became a significant contributor to rebuilding Europe after WWII.? Those who were privy to the use of the PPP to rebuild Europe and had assets became extremely wealthy in participating in the Private Placement Programs.??????
????????? Historically, economic issues have been the key reason for conflict.? World War I was the result of differences between the German Austria-Hungry and the Ottoman Empire.? Economic competition between the two powers was a key issue. World War II was preceded by the Great Depression in the early 1930’s that created severe economic conditions in Germany.

The world recalls that on December 7, 1941, Japan bombed the Pearl Harbor naval base of the United States and war was declared by the USA with Japan.? What was behind Japan’s attack on the USA?? The answer is simple – it was economic.? Japan was pursuing a policy of imperial expansion, and it needed oil to pursue that policy.? Japan was facing an oil embargo by the United States and determined that war was inevitable, so they struck Pearl Harbor to remove the threat of US navy from the Pacific Theater.
The Private Placement Program (PPP) was first created by the United States and Switzerland in the 1930’s.? A second world war was brewing, Japan was trying to expand, there was a global economic depression and new financial strategies needed be created.? However, it wasn’t until after WWII in 1944 that there was a renewed interest in the PPP as a tool to rebuild Europe.?
It was at the Bretton Woods Conference in New Hampshire, USA where the PPP was viewed as a way to rebuild the damage done to Europe by WWII.? 44 Countries attended that conference.? That same conference addressed the issue of a new global monetary system.? The Private Placement Program was one of the most crucial developments in economic history in that it provides a means to finance infrastructure and economic development project using private funds that could not be economically funded from government sources. ?Many of the wealthy people privy to the conference became even more wealthy by putting their assets into these trade programs.
????????? ?Another important economic development tool emerged in 1933 the Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC).? Non-standardized letters of credit existed in Europe since the 1800’s.? In 1933 the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) developed the first Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP).? The UCP offered a framework for banks to use letters of credit for transactions worldwide.? The SBLC created the ability for the payment of shipped products to be paid for with a safe guaranteed banking transaction.? The SBLC has now become a key financial transaction tool in today’s economic scheme that is used in many diverse financial transactions.?
Global economic competition continues to this day and in keeping with the history economic competition, armed conflict could again emerge if a successful solution is not developed.? The competition is between the east and the west.? China is trying to shore up its economy that like other countries severely curtailed during the COVID pandemic.? They are more forward thinking than other major economic powers in developing a long-term strategy.??
There are, however, three competing economic initiatives to expand the global economy. ?China, Japan and the USA all have global initiatives to expand economic ties throughout the globe.? China by far has the most sophisticated and thought-out strategy that has already been implemented.? The One Belt One Road initiative has already

been in operation for a decade but it still is in its infancy.? Japan’s program is called the Free and Open Asia Pacific Strategy.? Japan’s program seeks to increase their economic presence in other countries in the Asia Pacific region.? Even though they have their own economic strategy they subscribe and participate in the China program as well.? The USA has a global economic strategy that has been called the Free and Open Indo Pacific Strategy.
The important difference in the three strategies is that China has developed a method whereby private money can be used to accelerate the global access to economic growth.? Neither the Japan nor USA strategy has an articulated plan for how private investors can not only help grow international economic growth but profit from that growth.? The economic development problem today is basically the same problem faced at the end of WWII when Europe had to be rebuilt.? Only now the economic “building” is global in nature and circling the globe.? Wealth again has the opportunity to become even wealthier by participating in global economic initiatives.
The expansion of a global economy will have far reaching implications and could solve some of the major humanitarian and political issues that are faced on a global scale.? If economic competition elicits armed conflict, then expanding the economic base lessens the tensions between competing nations and therefore reduces the risk or armed conflict.? That is a laudable goal.
Further, developing economic bases in countries where there is low development now creates jobs that produce disposable income for the workers.? Disposable income results in greater national GDP.? If there are opportunities to improve the citizens economic status there will be fewer mass migration issues that other countries must deal with.? Mass migrations have major financial consequences on the countries the migrants migrate to.? It is only a matter of time before those mass migrant producing countries are going to be in conflict with the receiving countries.
As a potential investor in the global economic development initiative, how can a profit be made by investing?
The Silk Road, now called the One Belt One Road global economic development plan utilizes existing and established procedures, banking transactions, and bank instruments to fund pre-approved loans for economic development projects globally.? Using the current global banking system ensures that all transactions are governed and regulated by the appropriate authorities.
Private investors, individuals or entities, who have $100,000,000 or more can participate in global economic development through leveraging their cash accounts without blocking their account.? Furthermore, they will be able to use the bank’s money, using a line of credit to earn a 40% return on their money paid in cash.? That cash can then be invested in a high yield program of their choosing.
