TOKYO -- China remains a key market for Rio Tinto, the Anglo-Australian mining company, even as the nation's faltering economy and authoritarian regime concerns some Western governments and businesses, Chief Executive Jakob Stausholm told Nikkei Asia.
"There are some challenges in the property sector, but you have to bear in mind that the automotive sector is booming, particularly EV production and the export of EVs," said Stausholm, who had just come from China to speak at Nikkei's Global Management Dialogue in Tokyo on Wednesday.
