Report shows coastal provinces get largest concentration of FDI
For China's provincial leaders eager to woo overseas investors, a report released on Monday may provide some timely guidance.
Using the FDI Performance Index adopted by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development to discover if areas have received FDI inflows appropriate to their economic power, the report reveals three provincial clusters, according to Karl Sauvant, senior fellow of the Vale Columbia Center on Sustainable International Investment.
The locations in the first cluster, all of which perform better than might be expected given their economic size, are virtually all coastal areas.
