Abstract

With the continual economic growth of China, the importance of Chinese foreign direct investment and where this investment is directed grows as well. There has been research within the last decade looking into the significance of strategic-asset-seeking (SAS) when determining the factors of Chinese foreign direct investment (FDI). SAS is classified as foreign direct investment that targets technology, patents, stocks, and human capital. Numerous studies have found differing results when measuring the significance of SAS in determining FDI. This literature review compares completed research in order to find how the measurement of SAS affects location models. For this review data of Chinese FDI in the US is used to test the significance of SAS in developed nations.
