The first part of the article is devoted to the analysis of assumptions and instruments of"Go Global" strategy used to strengthen the government's initiatives aimed at encouraging the national entrepreneurs to open up and conduct business internationally. Further in the article the dominant forms and directions of Chinese companies' expansion on the European market have been presented, followed by the analysis of the impact of Chinese economy on its major foreign investment partners during the current economic slowdown. The basis of the analysis made by the author was data obtained from the statistical bases (Eurostat) and reports of the Research Institutes for China Studies (Rhodium Group, Thomson Reuters). This is allowed to illustrate the development of Chinese expansion on the European market during the years 1999-2015. A significant increase in the activity of the Chinese capital in Europe could be seen in recent years. The development of relations between European countries and China is taking place not only in economic, but also in political and cultural dimension. This was reflected, among others, in activating of the trade activities between EU and China, the level of which increased greatly in years 1990-1999 from EUR 15,9 bn to EUR 72,2 bn, to reach a value of EUR 428,3 bn in 2011, making EU the most important trading partner of China. It should be emphasized that the European market has become the largest after Asian market, in terms of industry diversification of Chinese investment, where Chinese companies are investing in industries such as: raw materials, infrastructure automotive, chemicals and renewable energy.展开更多

We compare the predictive power of multiple discriminant analysis (MDA), logistic regression, and neural network models. We design and implement 126 different forecasting models using different predictive methods, different sample proportions, and different initial independent variables. The aim is to determine which model(s) and variables are best applicable for the short-term prediction of financial distress in China. We find that logistic regression models are superior to multiple discriminant analysis models in terms of prediction accuracy rate, restriction of sample distribution or prediction cost, but the neural network models show promise in their low Type I and Type II errors. The paper also inherently tests the applicability of variables traditionally used for bankruptcy prediction to the purpose of financial distress prediction in China.展开更多

This theory is put forward,and quickly caused the widespread attention of various disciplines. With the transition of the planned economy to marketeconomy in our country, most of the enterprises in China will still refuse to take care of the social responsibility and a series ofproblems become the biggest contradiction in China's economic development and social development. So it is necessary forChina to slove these problems.展开更多
