The Chinese market has attracted more and more investors toward the countrys economic prospects.Paul Laudicina, President of the Global Business Policy Council全球貿(mào)易政策委員會(huì)的總裁 of A. T. Kearney, said that Chinas increasing attractiveness can be attributed to 歸因于several key factors: A huge market with a population of 1.3 billion, long-term and rapid economic growth, stable political situation and favorable investment environment穩(wěn)定地政治局面、良好的投資環(huán)境, as well as its WTO accession and Beijings successful bid投標(biāo)，出價(jià)to host the 2008 Olympic Games. A.T.科爾尼公司全球商業(yè)政策委員會(huì)主席保羅勞迪西那稱(chēng)，中國(guó)持續(xù)增長(zhǎng)的吸引力可以歸于以下幾個(gè)主要原因：13億人口的巨大市場(chǎng)，長(zhǎng)期快速的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展，穩(wěn)定的政治環(huán)境，有利的投資環(huán)境，以及加入WTO和北京成功申辦2008年奧運(yùn)會(huì)。He noted that China has become a primary choice of manufacturing enterprises throughout the world他指出中國(guó)已經(jīng)成為全世界制造業(yè)首選的國(guó)家.

Strong purchasing power is also a reason for increasing FDI in China.The survey shows that China is not only a FDI recipient, but also an investor. Last year, Chinas top 12 state-owned enterprises invested a total of $ 30 billion in foreign countries, equivalent to相當(dāng)于that of all of Latin America.

Given the fact that many of Chinas large enterprises have grown from small companies and that millions of Chinese people are planning to start businesses, Forbes believes that small enterprises will constitute組成 a major driving force behind the countrys sustained growth. Capital is an important propeller of these enterprises, especially in emerging industries. 福布斯指出，他中國(guó)企業(yè)的發(fā)展前景非常樂(lè)觀。由于中國(guó)的大企業(yè)都是由小公司發(fā)展而來(lái)，而且數(shù)百萬(wàn)的中國(guó)人也計(jì)劃從商，因此福布斯相信，小企業(yè)將仍然是中國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)持續(xù)增長(zhǎng)背后的一股主要強(qiáng)勁動(dòng)力。資本對(duì)于這些企業(yè)而言是重要的推動(dòng)力，特別是新興企業(yè)。Mike Dona, Chairman of the America Asia Capital Association, said that the Chinese investment market has the greatest potential in the world, and American investors are increasingly interested in investing in China. 美國(guó)-亞洲資本聯(lián)合會(huì)的主席麥克唐納說(shuō)，中國(guó)的投資市場(chǎng)在世界上具有最大的潛力，美國(guó)的投資者越來(lái)越傾向于到中國(guó)投資。He noted that Chinas economy is growing with astonishing speed and the private sector has shown huge development.
