Chinese FDI accounted for almost 39% of the total greenfield investments in 2023<\/strong>of the 36 countries in which the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) operates, jumping up from 5.1% in 2022, the EBRD said in its latest Regional Economic Prospects report (pdf)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cChina is dwarfing FDI from Germany and the US,\u201d <\/strong>the EBRD\u2019s chief economist Beata Javorick told the Financial Times<\/a>. The world\u2019s factory put forward more than twice as much investment last year than the US and Germany combined, who each accounted for less than 8% of total investment in the nations the bank works in.<\/p>\n

The sudden splurge in investment may be more about circumventing US trade barriers<\/strong> than anything else:<\/strong> \u201cChina has tried to diversify production locations in terms of potential trade barriers,\u201d Javorick told the salmon-colored paper. The Biden administration continued ramped-up trade tariffs on Chinese goods inherited from the previous administration and this week imposed<\/a> additional tariffs on a further USD 18 bn worth of Chinese imports.<\/p>\n

While China is looking to invest abroad to avoid tariffs, Russia is looking to China to<\/strong> avoid sanctions:<\/strong> China and Russia affirmed<\/a> a \u201cnew era\u201d of relations between the states during Russian premier Putin\u2019s two-day visit to the nation over the weekend that will see Russia becoming ever-more reliant on the Asian nation. Putin seems to have secured a commitment to a closer economic relationship as Russian businesses increasingly look to China as imports of key production inputs from Europe and much of the rest of the world are cut off by sanctions from Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n
