With the development of economic globalization, the Chinese economy is increasingly integrating into the world economy at a faster pace. As a significant force in global capital, Chinese capital entering Europe actually follows two different paths, namely the two different ways for Chinese capital to enter Europe: corporate investment and individual investment.
Corporate investment is the primary way for Chinese capital to enter Europe
Corporate investment refers to investment methods where different forms of enterprises serve as the investment entities. In terms of both quantity and quality, corporate investment has always been the mainstream of Chinese capital investment in Europe.
From 2000 to 2016, Chinese capital investment in Europe exceeded 101.3 billion euros, with corporate investment being the dominant form of Chinese capital entering Europe.
Chinese enterprises' investment in Europe is mainly characterized by concentrated mergers and acquisitions. In 2016, Europe was the region where Chinese enterprises made the most acquisitions, with a total acquisition amount exceeding 85.8 billion USD, surpassing the total amount of Chinese acquisitions in Europe in the previous four years.
Corporate investment often represents the multinational extension of domestic business. For example, the acquisitions of shares in European automotive companies Volvo and Daimler by Chinese automotive enterprise Geely Group exemplify this. In addition to the prominent large-scale corporate investments, there is a growing number of less conspicuous investments from small and medium-sized enterprises and individual investments. Overseas investment is no longer the privilege of large Chinese enterprises!
Individual investment is an important way for Chinese capital to enter Europe
As an important way for Chinese capital to enter Europe, individual investment has developed rapidly in recent years. Individual investment refers to investment methods where natural persons holding capital serve as the investment entities.
Individual investment is mainly asset allocation and diversified investment. It is also a type of investment with diverse purposes, meaning that the investment objectives of the entities are personalized. Individual investment is characterized by clear backgrounds, simple structures, and small-scale diversification, making it easier to operate, more flexible, and more readily accepted.
Individual investment is playing an increasingly important role in China's capital investment. Taking Portugal as an example, in the five years leading up to the end of 2017, capital from individual investors in China exceeded 2 billion euros.
The capital flows from individual investments and corporate investments often promote each other. Again, taking Portugal as an example, as individual investments from China continuously flow into Portugal, investments from Chinese enterprises have also entered the Portuguese electricity, insurance, banking, and water industries on a larger scale. By the end of 2017, the total investment of Chinese enterprises in Portugal had exceeded 9 billion euros. Currently, this trend of investment growth continues.
At the 2018 China-Europe Trade and Investment Forum, ambassadors, ministers, and counselors from 18 European countries' embassies in China were invited to attend, with over 1,000 leaders from the political, business, and academic circles actively participating, and many well-known media outlets providing continuous coverage, resulting in a full house with additional seating! This is the first large-scale China-Europe forum organized by a non-governmental organization in China, marking a historic moment! It is inspiring and exhilarating!
