  • Donations to President-elect Donald Trump's inaugural committee offer a "unique opportunity" to curry favor with the White House, experts told CNBC.

The article from MSN discusses why business leaders are making significant financial contributions to Donald Trump's inaugural committee.

The article also highlights that while some CEOs are hesitant due to Trump's unpredictable nature, the allure of access to the highest levels of government remains a strong motivator for contributions.
