China Outbound Investment: Tracked

China outbound investment has been on a straight line increase for years. But to what countries and industry sectors is all that money sloshing? Well with the China Global Investment Tracker, you now have a handy way to determine this. This quasi-interactive map/graphic tells all you might want to know about Chinese outbound investment:

The China Global Investment Tracker is the only comprehensive data set covering China’s global investment and construction activity. Inaugurated in 2005, the CGIT now includes approximately 1,600 large transactions worth well over $1 trillion across energy, real estate, high-tech, and other industries, as well as more than 150 troubled transactions. The full list of transactions, including the amount, the parent investor, the host country, and the sector, is available for public use with the proper citation. The tracker is published by the American Enterprise Institute and the Heritage Foundation.

The interactive map filters investments and construction by sector, region, country, and year.
