Chinese investment in Australia dropped by 40 per cent last year, according to new figures.
The details are revealed in the first comprehensive public database tracking the flow of Chinese foreign investment into Australia, which outlines who spent the money and what they spent it on.
It shows that from 2014 to 2017, Chinese investment totalled more than $40.4 billion.
Investment was at its highest in 2016, at $14.9 billion, but dropped to $8.9 billion in 2017.
“It definitely peaked in 2016 and [came] back really quite a lot by 40 per cent in one year there and I guess looking at the data it will come back again this year,” project leader Peter Drysdale, said.
He said there were a few reasons for the sudden decline.
“Either in terms of control in China or controls in Australia or the investment environment in Australia,” Professor Drysdale said.
Researchers from the Australian National University compiled the database on Chinese investment in Australia by crosschecking figures from sources such as the Foreign Investment Review Board and the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
“Getting an accurate picture of what’s going on is half the battle in having a sensible public discussion,” Professor Drysdale said.
“The careful understanding of that is important to the development of a policy approach which will ensure all the risks associated with Chinese investment, from a public interest viewpoint, are covered.”
Where the money goes
Part of the difficulty in tracking Chinese investment is that the investors are scattered. While many are in mainland China, others are based in Hong Kong or Australia.
The research team painstakingly trawled through thousands of transactions to put together the full picture.
It showed most of the money went towards mining and real estate. Mining accounted for a quarter of the total money received over the four-year period.
But it also showed a growing amount was being funnelled into services sectors, such as the health services industry.
The only sector to receive absolutely no money was public administration and safety.
“So it’s a more nuanced and mixed picture than we’re used to,” researcher Shiro Armstrong said.
“And that’s not surprising, because Chinese investment in this country is starting to mature a bit, just as other sources matured previously, like Japanese investment, American investment before that.
“It starts to diversify across the sectors, across the economy.”
Dr Armstrong said that brought new opportunities for Australian business.
“So whereas we used to dig up a lot of rocks and ship them to China, that will still be a big part of our economic relationship, but their investment is largely coming into tourism, the services sector, services links importantly,” Dr Armstrong said.
Most of the money went to urban areas in New South Wales and Victoria.
Less than 10 per cent went to rural areas, although the researchers believe there is potential for that to grow in future.
How much comes from the People’s Republic of China?
The database also sheds light on how much investment was backed by the Chinese Government.
There have long been concerns about state-owned enterprises buying up Australian farmland and business. But according to this study, the Chinese Government was involved in less than 20 per cent of all sales.
“So what it’s telling us really is that private investment from China is almost as important, just as important, as state-owned enterprise investment,” Dr Armstrong said.
“A lot of small-scale investment is coming in as well as the big ticket headline projects.”
But companies affiliated with the Communist Party tended to be involved in the bigger deals, and that meant they contributed nearly half of the total dollars invested.
Professor Drysdale said it was hard to glean from a spreadsheet whether that translated into Chinese influence.
“Well, the data itself immediately doesn’t tell us directly anything about that,” he said.
“But what it makes possible is analysing those issues in a fact-based way, an evidence-based way.”
He said previously, the debate about Chinese investment had been lacking in some of those cold hard facts.
“To put it frankly, the evidence, the information, hasn’t been available to do the kind of analysis that’s necessary to make the sort of claims that people have made about Chinese investment in Australia up to this point,” he said.
The researchers are now pulling together the data for 2018.
They say the database could also be replicated in future to look at the flow of money from other countries, such as Japan.
