from wikipedia :
The Pekin Syndicate (Or Peking Syndicate in some sources) was an Anglo-Italian company, founded in London, United Kingdom, that was conceived and incorporated in 1897 and operated within the territories of the Qing Empire, Warlord China , and the People's Republic of China.[1] At one point, the syndicate had become one of the most powerful foreign companies in China.
The Pekin Syndicate was created in 1897 by a knight of the Civil Order of Savoy, Angelo Luzzatti, and Carlo Starabba di Rudinì, the son of Antonio Starabba, Marchese di Rudinì. The objective of the Syndicate was to obtain concessions out of the Qing Empire to profit from the construction of railways, the creation of a local Sino-Anglo-Italian bank, find a resource suitable for exploitation, and create a supply chain to increase the sale of weaponry to the Qing after their interest in armament grew.[2][3]
Since its initial founding, the Syndicate had gotten support from investors located in the British Empire and the Kingdom of Italy. Especially, British investors saw the opportunity to use the company to grow their profit and revenue in China through the exploitation of resources.[2]
