This marks the 13th consecutive year that China has ranked among the top three globally and the ninth consecutive year with a share above 10 percent in terms of outward FDI.

By the end of 2024, China’s total outward FDI volume had reached $3.14 trillion, ranking among the top three in the world for the eighth consecutive year.

“Economic globalization is an unstoppable trend. The globalization of Chinese enterprises is based on mutual benefit and win-win outcomes: we provide quality supply, employment opportunities and tax revenues to local communities, while the enterprises themselves achieve solid growth.

We must continue to take full advantage of domestic and international markets and resources,” said Wu Sanqiang, secretary of the board of directors of China International Marine Containers (Group) Co.
