Event Details

Despite a global pandemic, growing geopolitical tensions, an economic slowdown and increasing business complaints about the investment climate in China, Chinese official FDI numbers have shown resilient inward FDI flows the past 3 years.

How to understand this contradiction? Rhodium Group brings new data to the table to show that the reality is more nuanced and complex. In this event, CBBC invites Agatha Kratz, Director at Rhodium Group to present their latest research on the issue, and draw implication for foreign businesses with a China presence.
