Does China Have An Impact on Foreign Direct Investment To Latin America? (¿Afecta China la inversión extranjera directaen América Latina?)
English Abstract: We analyze empirically whether the emergence of China as a large recipient of FDI has affected the amount of FDI received by Latin American countries. For the longest time span possible given data availability (from 1984 to 2001), we do not find a substitution from Latin American inward FDI to China, when other relevant factors are taken into account. However, concentrating on the last few years (from 1995 to 2001), when FDI boomed worldwide and negotiations for China’s WTO membership accelerated, the “Chinese” effect becomes highly significant. Assessing the impact country by country, China’s inward FDI appears to have hampered that of Mexico and Colombia.Spanish Abstract: Este capítulo analiza empíricamente si la incursión de China como receptor de IED ha afectado la cantidad de IED captada por los países de América Latina. Sobre el periodo más extenso posible (1984-2001), dada la disponibilidad de datos, no se halló una desviación de IED de América Latina hacia China, cuando se consideran otros factores importantes. No obstante, poniendo énfasis en los últimos años (1995-2001), cuando la IED tuvo auge a nivel mundial y se aceleraron las negociaciones para la entrada de China en la OMC, el "efecto chino" es altamente significativo. Evaluando el impacto país por país, la entrada de IED en China parece haber obstruido el flujo hacia Colombia y México, aunque no es el caso para otras cuatro grandes economías estudiadas
