Building the New Silk Road across the Pacific. Economic and trade relations between Chinaand Latin America after the Financial Crisis in 2008128 4.3. Third, the imbalance of investment from China to Latin AmericaUntil 2009, Chinese investments to Latin American and Caribbean countries amounted to$41 billion and accounted for 157% of the total investment abroad. But almost 95% of thatinvestment went to two small islands in the Caribbean: the Cayman Islands and the BritishVirgin Islands, both famous tax havens.In contrast, investments to most Latin American countries were only a very small part. Forexample, investments to Brazil, Peru, Argentina, and Venezuela accounted for less than 1%each.In terms of investment structure, most investment went to automobile, mine, iron, officeequipment, commercial, and paper industries. There were no large investments in infrastructure,high-tech industries, or others that could improve the industries and create moreemployment. China tended to invest in mine and other industries that could expand theirmarket in Latin America.Table 5: Investment of China to Latin America by countries 2008-2009 28(Top 10 countries, by million US dollars)Country andRegionTotal investmentbefore 2009Investment in2009PercentageTotal of world 220,000 43,000Latin Americaand Caribbean41,179 8,000 100%Cayman Island 27,682 7,354 67.2%British VirginIslands11,807 1,330 28.7%Brazil 289 72 0.7%Peru 279 85 0.7%Argentina 213 39 0.5%Venezuela 176 20 0.4%Mexico 175 2 0.4%Ecuador 90 1 0.2%Panama 77 10 0.2%Cuba 72 0 0.2%28. http://www.mofcom.gov.cn/ (only available in mandarin)GCG GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY - UNIVERSIA ENERO-ABRIL 2012 VOL. 6 NUM. 1 ISSN: 1988-7116pp: 115-135
