China's foreign capital market remain resilient, with strong appeal of high-end industries and domestic market: Chinese Economist

The 2025 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit is being held from Nov. 6 to 9 in Wuzhen, East China’s Zhejiang Province. During the summit, as foreign media reported that European and American companies have shown growth in their Chinese market performance, Liang Guoyong, a senior economist at the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, stated in an interview with China News Network that thanks to its well-established infrastructure and industrial ecosystem, China's manufacturing sector boasts high international competitiveness and remains attractive to foreign investment. Amid the economic recovery, foreign investment in China has demonstrated resilience and unique strengths.

He believes that the current decline in foreign investment inflows into the Chinese market is a relatively short-term phenomenon and an inevitable part of the ongoing economic transformation and upgrading. As the structure of foreign investment continues to optimize and its quality keeps improving, China is demonstrating new and substantial attractiveness in various high-end industries and its vast domestic market. Specifically, in high-tech manufacturing and service sectors, foreign investment inflows have maintained rapid growth, with strengthening advantages. (By Xue Lingqiao)
