- Abstract
To accelerate the OFDI of China to the "OBOR" countries and explore the influence factors of OFDI location choice, this article selects the data of China to 35 countries along "One Belt and One Road" during 2005-2014, using extended gravity model to analyze the influence factors of OFDI location choice. Inspection analysis shows that some factors are significant positive impact on the OFDI location choice of China to the "OBOR" countries, such as larger economies of scale, abundant natural resources endowment, high per capital national income and similar to China's institutional environment; geographic distance has negative impact on OFDI and technological level has no significant influence on OFDI. As a result, China's OFDI should pay more attention to the host countries' GDP, natural resources and geographic distance, strengthen the analysis of institutional environment.
