Abstract

Germany is Europe’s most populated country and it is actual locomotive for growth. The Germans have a positive image in China. However, this appreciation is not mutual. Various polls indicate that Germans are reserved concerning China’s rise; some even dislike outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) from Chinese Companies flowing to Germany. Nevertheless, Chinese investments in Germany will accelerate in the near future; already it increased from 600 million € 2 years ago to more than 800 million €. Experts predict a further massive increase. Asian OFDIs in Europe will be an integral part of the Asian Century, transforming the host countries, just as western OFDIs changed Asia during the last decades. This article analyses the German “China readiness” in the field of public economic policy at a local level.
