IN THE

UNITED STATES

Excluding bond purchases, Chinese investment in the
United States set a record last year at more than $14 billion, rising
more than 50 percent from 2012.
The American Enterprise Institute and The Heritage Foundation
have joined forces to create the China Global Investment Tracker
— the world’s only fully public database on Chinese nonbond
investment. It contains more than 500 outward investments of $100
million or more made by the People’s Republic and Chinese firms
since 2005, worth more than $475 billion.
The following are among the largest purchases in the United States
made by Chinese entities in 2013.
