    THE first official Belt and Road bond in China's domestic market has introduced a new financing instrument for the massive infrastructure initiative but offered few advantages for the issuer.

    Hongshi Holding Group, a privately owned cement maker, printed the 300 million yuan (S$62.11 million) three-year corporate bond on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) on Jan 19.
