Since China's adoption of an "open door" policy and economic reforms beginning in 1978, international trade and inward foreign direct investment (FDI) have played a key role in its rapid economic development.

1. Definition Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) -----an
investment involving a long-term relationship and reflecting a lasting interest and control of a resident entity in one economy (foreign direct investor or parent enterprise) in an enterprise resident in an economy other than that of the foreign direct investor (FDI enterprise or affiliate enterprise or foreign affiliate).
6
Strategic motives for FDI
Resource seeking FDI Market seeking FDI Efficiency seeking FDI Strategic asset seeking FDI Other motives for FDI
7
Resource seeking FDI
To seek physical resources including labour and intangible resources.
Search for lower production costs Example: labour, natural resources
Nike, Sony and Toshiba
8
Market seeking FDI
To seek to sustain and protect existing markets, and exploit and promote new markets.
To follow suppliers and customersor obtain host government concessions
and circumvent trade barriers. Example. Coca-Cola, Nokia, Motorola
9
Efficiency seeking FDI To rationalise the structure of established res
ource-based or market-seeking investments in such a way that the investing company can gain from the common governance of geographically dispersed activities.
Two types of division of labor: developing and developed countries; or developed countries with same income lev
el; to enjoy economies of scale. Example: Automobile industry
10
Strategic asset seeking FDI
To pursue an integrated global or regional strategy.
Two types: --Protective type strategic seekers
(e.g., accounting firms) --expansionary MNE (e.g. toy
manufacturing)
11
Other motives for FDI
Escape investments, to circumvent restrictions on the share of domestic production that MNEs might obtain.
Support investments, an affiliate or branch office activity is a first step towards setting up a market-or resource-seeking FDI.
And etc.

2. FDI in China The genesis of FDI policy Overview of foreign investment FDI’s role in China’s economy
14
(1) The genesis of FDI policy
FDI as part of the process of opening up and economic reform-- Deng Xiaoping's open-door policy.
15
16
Initial success: FDI in 1980s
----Investment from Hong Kong, Macao, Taipei
--geographical distribution: Guangdong, SEZs;--sector distribution: hotel; labor-intens
ive export manufacturing
17
Entrenchment of FDI in the 1990s
geographical distribution sector distribution: manufacturing Source of investment has changed,
more and more investment came from OECD countries.
18
WTO entry: New phase in opening up On Dec 11th 2001, China acceded to the WTO.
Widen the scope of operation of FIEs ; Opening up of services sectors
Distribution and trading rights of FIEs Revision of catalogues(encouraged;
permitted; restricted; and prohibited; 2005)
National treatment
19
TRIMs (Trade-related investment measures); trade performance, trade balancing, local content requirement were abolished
new foreign bank licensing regulations
…..more fields will be open to the foreignInvestors after 2006

(2) Overview of foreign investment
China was the largest developing country recipient of FDI, and the fourth largest recipient of FDI in the world, after the United States, the United Kingdom and France.
21
Total accumulated FDI (realized value) rose from US$1.8 billion in 1982 to US$750 billion in 2007.
By contrast, FDI outflows have, until recently, been relatively low, reaching only US$5.5 billion in 2004, for an accumulated total of US$100 billion.

By the end of 2006, the cumulative realized FDI value reached US$ 703,974
million.
By the end of 2006, 594,445 foreign invested enterprises (FIEs) have registered in China.
Over 480 out of top 500 multinational companies have entered China.
25
A. Changing form of FIEs Two major modes :
-- contractual joint venture and equity joint venture;
-- wholly-foreign-owned enterprises
-- joint exploitation of natural resources --foreign-invested shareholding
enterprises--others, e.g. build-operate-transfer
(BOT)…
26
In the early stages of economic reform, equity joint ventures were preferred.
Since 2000, the number of wholly owned subsidiaries established has exceeded that of joint ventures.
27
Cross-border mergers and acquisitions started to emerge in 1990s.

Example: IBM China
Began with agency arrangement, then joint venture for over ten years;
IBM China was established as a Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprises in 1992.
Now use a mix of WFOE an JV formats depending on what their purpose is for a specific project, and also where they are operating within the country.

--eastern; central; western --top five provinces or municipalicities (i
ncluding Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Chongqing) enjoying the most actualized foreign investment: Guangdong, Jiangsu, Fujian, Shanghai, Shandong, ..
34

Economic and technological development zones (54): Dalian, Tianjin, Ningbo, Beijing and Harbin…
Export processing zones (57) State-level High-tech industrial development zo

36
D. Industry distribution of FDI Manufacturing remained a major attraction to
foreign investors. Services became another attraction. By the end of 2006, the cumulative FDI value in
industries:
Primary industry
Manufacturing
Services
3% 71% 26%
37
Technology-intensive and capital-intensive industry have absorbed more and more FDI.
e.g.,Intel ; IBM;Motorola .
38
By 2006, 214 operations have been set up by 74 foreign banks and 115 of them have been approved for RMB business.
Total assets of these foreign-funded banks in China have reached 120 billion USD.
Foreign-funded banks have opened 209 representative offices in China.
47 Foreign-funded insurance companies have also established operations in China.
39
(3) FDI’s role in China’s economy
FDI has played an increasingly important role in the economy .
FDI has contributed 2.7 percent of average gro
wth (9.7%) of GDP. Foreign invested enterprises has created 23,50
0,000 jobs directly. 20.7 percent of the whole country’s taxation
revenue came from foreign invested enterprises in 2005.
40
FIEs have stimulated trade growth import : over 50% export : over 50% trade deficit or surplus?
41
The role of FDI in Chinese industry --FIEs are far more export-oriented than do
mestic producers. ( over 50% exports ) -- Productivity of Capital and labour producti
vity are clearly higher in FIEs than in domestic industry.
--FDI has modified China's industrial structure.
42
Spillover to the domestic economy--FIEs have established over 750 R&D center in Ch
ina.--Raise the overall productivity--New technologies diffused into the local econo
my--Human capital--Competition
43
The controversial issues on the role of FDI
Monopoly? Threatening national economic safety ? Unemployment rate? limited benefits from FDI--Processing base Over-dependence on FIEs’ technology? Environment losses?
44
An example Value chain (R&D-processing-marketing-after-sale service)
The cost of the toy: $12
The Chinese toy plant sell at $15
Chinese Trading company sell at $22
Hong Kong Trading company sell to the American firm: $50
American firm sell to the store at the price of $82
US store: the toy’s price $100
Profit the plant: 3 Chinese Trading co
mpany: 7 Hong Kong Trading
company: 28 American firm: 32 US store: 18
45
Discussion 1 Are there a lot of FIEs in your country? what attitude do the governmentand people take toward them?
2 Do you think FIEs in your country benefit people’s life? How? Give an example.
46
3. Suppose you plan to invest in China, can you list factors which will influence your investment decisions, and which factor do you think is most important?
