Abstract

Un rasgo sobresaliente de la IED china es su diversificacion geografica y sectorial. Es excepcionalmente amplia, si se considera que la Republica Popular China es un pais en desarrollo que recientemente se ha integrado a la economia internacional. Ademas, actualmente las multinacionales chinas estan localizadas tanto en paises desarrollados (Estados Unidos, Reino Unido y Australia) como en paises pobres (Sudan y Zambia). En consecuencia, esta investigacion busca analizar los motivos que han llevado a dichas empresas a localizarse en paises tan disimiles, y determinar, al mismo tiempo, los tipos de inversiones realizadas con la finalidad de mostrar sus pautas de localizacion A striking aspect of Chinese FDI is its geographical and sectoral diversification. It is exceptionally wide ranging, if we take into account that the People's Republic of China is a developing country that only recently joined the global economy. Moreover, Chinese multinationals are currently established in both developed countries (the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia) and poor countries (Sudan and Zambia). As a result, this paper seeks to analyze the motives that have led such firms to set up in such diverse countries. At the same time it aims to determine the types of investment made, in order to reveal the patterns of localization. Adapted from the source document.
