ABSTRACT
China’s OFDI scale is increasing for countries along the “One Belt and One Road”, and the ensuing investment risk issues deserve our attention. This article introduces ICRG’s national risk data, based on panel data from 36 countries along the “One Belt and One Road” from 2006 to 2017, and studies the impact of national risk on China’s OFDI. The study found that economic risk has a significant negative effect on China's OFDI, political risk has a significant negative effect on China's OFDI, and financial risk has no significant effect on China's OFDI.
