This introduction outlines some of the more influential academic studies on Chinese investment abroad, including the existing quantitative literature on Chinese outbound direct investment (ODI). It introduces a case study from Australia involving state-owned mining conglomerate Chinalco, and the fallout from its failed bid for a share in Rio Tinto. The study confounds many of stereotypes issue images-86_2_oilfactoryabout the behaviour of the Chinese central state. We go on to suggest frameworks developed in the study of China's domestic political economy that may be useful in analyzing the behaviour of Chinese state and non-state actors abroad. Such frameworks can help in understanding how Chinese investors develop informal institutions, and make use of existing formal institutions, to "get things done" in unfamiliar investment environments.

Greenland is important to Denmark's position in international politics, and it has become an arena of increasing competition between great powers. Of all China's shipping, investment and scientific exploration activities in the Arctic, Chinese investments in Greenland have become the most controversial issue. For Washington DC, Copenhagen, and the IA Party that won the Greenlandic general election in April 2021, China's political influence and the environmental impacts that might come with investment are a major concern. Behind the concern is the view that Chinese investments are driven and coordinated by the Chinese state for strategic purposes, but there is a lack of studies on how close state-business relations are and to what extent the domestic reforms in China have pushed Chinese companies to seek out Greenland. Therefore, this DIIS report seeks to inform debates around the role of China in Greenland by delving into the following questions: Why would Chinese companies invest in mining projects in Greenland, and how have they obtained access? How have the projects progressed? To what extent have Chinese state actors participated in these projects?

Chinese foreign direct investment inflows in India increased from just US $1 million in 2010 to the US $173 million in 2019, while the total private equity investment was US $3,423 million in the same period. Chinese companies emerged as majority shareholders in several Indian start-ups, particularly in the technology sector. In contrast to this economic development, there has been a constant clash among the borders, noticeably in the Dokhlam and Galwan valleys with a few other minor clashes in different areas. Both nations are experiencing a booming economic alliance and shrinking political and diplomatic relations at the same time. In this background, the current article attempts to explore the key factors influencing the Chinese to invest in India. This article also attempts to analyse the nature of Chinese investment and explain why many countries look at Chinese investment with suspicion. Applying the regression model, the study finds that various policy variables played a significant role in attracting Chinese investors to India. JEL Codes: P33, F10, F50

The article analyzes China's investment in the UK. Sectors of the British economy, in which the largest Chinese investments are concentrated, have been recounted. Large British enterprises, acquired by Chinese companies in 2005–2020, have been identified. The dynamics of the expansion of Chinese capital is examined in the context of the political, economic and technological risks that it generates. The article focuses on the study of the argumentation of experts who question the advisability of the active participation of Chinese capital in the development of the UK economy. There are three factors that will negatively affect investment cooperation between the two states. Firstly, there is considerable concern among British politicians about the rise of China's influence. Secondly, London's decision to bar Huawei from building 5G networks has worsened UKChina relations. Thirdly, National Security and Investment Bill, now progressing through UK Parliament, will give the authorities additional powers to block investment projects with foreign capital participation on national security grounds. The author concludes that all these factors will lead to a decline in China's investment in the United Kingdom.

Abstract The People's Republic of China has consolidated its status as a great power and strengthened its presence in different regions of the planet. In accordance with its economic development strategy, Beijing's growing bond with Latin America is part of China's need to guarantee access to raw materials and energy resources. In this framework and through economic diplomacy, China has strengthened its trade relations, as well as loans and investments in most of the region's countries.Brazil is an example of this relationship pattern, as one of China's most important partners and top investment destination in Latin America. It became Beijing's top commercial partner in 2012. This paper will analyse the composition and evolution of Chinese foreign direct investment (FDI) in Brazil between the years of 2004 and 2020. In order to do so, we will study the main projects carried out by the country, as well as the characteristics of the Chinese companies (state or non-state) that participated in the process, in order to understand their most important features. Likewise, we will analyse the articulation of the Chinese FDI with its trade flows. We will start from the premise that Chinese investments in Brazil are directly linked to Beijing's strategic interests, while at the same time guided by market logics that try to maximise profits. In this vein, within the framework of the 'going out strategy',state companies play a fundamental role.

"This book sheds light on financial decision making and lays down the major biases in human behavioral decision making, such as over-confidence, naive extrapolation, attention, and risk aversion, and how they lead investors and corporations to make considerable mistakes in investment. It draws on a large body of literature, from psychology and social psychology to, most importantly, behavioral economics and behavioral finance. It also looks at the progress in behavioral finance research over recent decades and includes research outputs based on retail and institutional investors from the United States, China, and many other international financial markets. The book focuses on China's financial reforms and economic transition and includes many cases from that country to highlight the importance of behavioral finance and investor education. It therefore provides much needed in-depth understanding of the Chinese capital market"--The publisher.
