Recent economic weakness in China hasn't deterred foreign direct investment, with inflows maintaining robust growth in the first two months of this year, figures from the Ministry of Commerce indicated on Tuesday.
During January and February, FDI (excluding the financial sector) rose almost 10.5 percent year-on-year to $19.31 billion, the ministry said. In February alone, inbound FDI went up 4 percent to $8.55 billion.
Analysts said that global investors' confidence was strengthened by the nation's planned reforms and opening-up initiatives.
