Bob Pickard joins the PRovoke Media podcast to discuss his dramatic exit from the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, whom he accused of being overly influenced by the Chinese Communist Party. In conversation with Arun Sudhaman, Pickard responds to a subsequent AIIB report that dismissed his allegations, and instead claimed his tenure was marked by "managerial shortcomings". He also discusses the geopolitical environment for Western companies in China, and explains why he took on the role in the first place.
