From World Factory to Global Investor

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'Over the last decade, China rapidly became a major player in global investment. In recent years, China's Outward Direct Investment (ODI) already surpassed its inward Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). Against this background, the editors of this volume, both from China Investment Corporation, China's sovereign wealth fund established a decade ago, assembled an impressive and diversified group of more than 30 academics, policy makers, business consultants and investment professionals from inside and outside China to contribute to a wide range of analysis on China's ODI. The result is a timely and valuable book, which in my view will benefit those who want to understand the economic, business and investment logic of the rise of China's ODI, to interpret related government policies, and to think about its global implications.' - Yingyi Qian, Professor and Dean, School of Economics and Management, Tsinghua University

'This book provides a valuable examination of China's emergence as a global economic powerhouse-from a global manufacturing hub to a global investor. It details, from a variety of perspectives, the shifting focus of Chinese overseas investment, including the role of state and private entities, the consequences for rebalancing of China's domestic patterns of growth, and the experiences of a variety of Chinese firms and entrepreneurs. These are understudied areas that warrant much more attention. From World Factory to Global Investor is an important contribution. It provides a window into China today and an important dimension of its likely future economic priorities.' - Merit E Janow, Dean, School of International and Public Affairs, Professor of Practice, International Economic Law & International Affairs, Columbia University 'Over the last decade, China rapidly became a major player in global investment.
