Chinese ODI in France- Challenges and Opportunities

Taking France as a case study,the paper suggests explanations for the presence of Chinese firms,assesses in detail the push and pull factors influencing their activities and provides a tentative assessment of possible impacts.The paper shows that the concerns expressed about the presence of Chinese investors are wholly misplaced so far for a number of reasons.First, Chinese ODl is still extremely limited,secondly Chinese investors can be shown to behave exactly like any other foreign investors,with marketseeking objectives prevailing over strategic asset-seeking motivations,and finally Chinese ODI may lead to win-win situations. In particular French firms can be shown to be in a position to benefit from Chinese ODI either by discharging underperforming assets or by getting an access to the Chinese market.
