Where will rich Chinese invest now that Chinese stock gains are evaporating, the Chinese economy is slowing down and the Chinese currency is set for further devaluation? Foreign direct investment goes where economies are growing and stable. Follow the money is age old advice for knowing why something is happening. In this case we would like to follow the money that goes into foreign direct investment. Foreign direct investment is done by folks with lots of money and the intention to stay a course and make a profit. If you are looking for offshore investment ideas, take a look at where foreign direct investment goes year after year after year. There have been changes afoot regarding where foreign direct investment is going. A very useful reference in this regard is the just published United Nations study, World Investment Report 2013.

When the opportunity to earn and protect wealth fades money moves from one country to another. This is now happening as the Chinese economic miracle starts to fade. The Case So Far We touched on Chinese investment in America in an article of the same title. We provided an example of a Chinese company setting up a cotton mill in the American South.
