Abstract
The role of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is more and more critical in a globalized world. China's Outward FDI (OFDI) has received increasing interest in empirical research since it started surging in 2004. China's OFDI to European Union (EU) and North America countries has been substantially growing recently, especially during financial crisis period. This thesis investigates the key determinants of China's OFDI to EU Member States and North America Countries and compares if the determinants for EU countries are different from the determinants for North America Countries. Statistical analyses are applied to seek evidence of general considerations of FDI and specific considerations on China's OFDI, and on EU and North America Countries.
