Abstract:
In recent years, in line with China’s Going Out strategy announced in 2000, China’s overseas investment activities have increased greatly and at increasing rates. By the end of 2009, the total value of China’s outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) had reached US$5.6 billion (MOFCOM, NBS and SAFE 2009). Policies have played strong supporting roles in bringing about this trend by facilitating and encouraging Chinese companies to make overseas investments. This working paper summarises these policies based on an analysis of policy changes over time and identifies the main drivers of these changes. It ends by highlighting some key research questions of relevance to deepening understanding of the impacts of Chinese trade and investment in Africa.
