Vice Minister of Commerce Jiang Chenghua said in response to the “Daily Economic News” reporter's live question that the international community and foreign-funded enterprises have the most say in whether China's investment environment is good or not. French investment in China increased by 31.8%, Switzerland by 26%, and the US by 7.7%. Major source companies continued to increase their investment in China. Jiang Chenghua further told reporters that more vigorous efforts to attract and utilize foreign capital are major arrangements made by the Party Central Committee, and it is also a key task clearly defined in the “Outline” of the “15th Five-Year Plan.” This year, China's absorption of foreign investment has faced many adverse factors, including the intensification of geopolitical conflicts, insufficient momentum for world economic growth, increased uncertainties, and the spread of protectionism and unilateralism. These factors have brought certain difficulties and challenges to the work of attracting foreign investment. Some people are even blaming the development prospects and investment environment of the Chinese economy. Jiang Chenghua said that since 2026, China has always insisted on using open cooperation to hedge against the impact of adverse factors and has maintained a good momentum in absorbing foreign investment, showing the characteristics of overall stable scale, structural optimization and upgrading, and stable and diverse sources.
