Chinese investment in India will grow
Friday, February 9, 2018
Subject
Chinese investment in India.
Significance
China is one of the fastest-growing sources of foreign direct investment (FDI) in India. The two countries are trying to stabilise bilateral relations that deteriorated after a tense 73-day border dispute in mid-2017.
Impacts
- Chinese companies’ demand for Mandarin-speaking manpower in India will rise.
- With India having launched e-business visas for Chinese nationals, cross-border business trips will increase.
- Delhi’s deepening security relationship with Washington, Tokyo and Canberra will prompt distrust in Beijing.
