The main source of this growth has been Russian investors, who control 98% of the total investment volume.
Analysis of the industry structure shows that the manufacturing sector holds a leading position, accounting for 93% of all accumulated investments, while the share of projects in areas such as trade, transport, and financial services remains insignificant.
According to information from the EDB:
- Although accumulated direct investments from Russia to China remain in a niche segment, their growth indicates dynamic development and a high degree of interdependence in certain industries.
- The total portfolio volume increased from $30 million in 2016 to $1 billion by the first half of 2025, with 95% of all accumulated FDI ($1 billion) attributed to the manufacturing sector.
