Video: "Chinese Investment into the EU: What to make of it?"
Chinese cross-border investments have surged since the mid-2000s. The European Union has benefitted very little from this development. Chinese investments in Europe account for a very small percentage of overall inward foreign direct investment in the EU. This is despite the efforts by EU member state investment promotion agencies to attract Chinese firms. Professor Jeremy Clegg, Dr. Hinrich Voss, Kerry Brown, Dr Liming Wang, and Professor Bernadette Andreosso-O'Callaghan discuss the determinants and consequences of this development at the Institute of International & European Affairs, Dublin (Ireland).
