Qatar pledges over $6 billion in investment in Britain- Reuters
Qatar pledged GBP 5 billion or USD 6.3 billion of investment in Britain on Monday. The head of the $335 billion Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) sovereign wealth fund, said he saw opportunities in Britain even after Brexit.
"I am still looking, even after Brexit there will be opportunities QIA can really hunt for," QIA Chief Executive Sheikh Abdullah bin Mohammed bin Saud al-Thani told the conference. "Whenever the (British) government would like the QIA to step in we are ready."
PM May is set to trigger the Article 50 on Wednesday. That would mark the beginning of the two-year long Brexit process.
