Breaking Ground: Chinese Investment in U.S. Real Estate | 开创性视角：美国房地产领域的中国投资

Chinese investment into the U.S. has been growing rapidly in recent years. The year 2013 marked a watershed, when for the first time Chinese outbound direct investment into the U.S. exceeded U.S. investment into China. The U.S. sector that has drawn by far the greatest share of Chinese investment is real estate, both residential and commercial, and this boom is the focus of a major new study by the Asia Society and Rosen Consulting Group (RCG), one of most influential real estate consulting, research, and analysis firms in the U.S.

Currently there is an estimated $200 billion of Chinese investment parked in U.S. real estate bonds, primarily long-term asset-backed securities. Since 2011, direct investments have exploded, particularly in New York and California. Estimates for 2014 peg Chinese investment at up to $10 billion in commercial real estate and more than $28 billion in residential real estate. While news coverage of individual transactions grows with each newly announced deal, particularly large dollar-value investments, few analytical studies offer a macro perspective on this boom, and none have attempted a comprehensive survey of total Chinese investment.

Building from Asia Society’s past studies on Chinese investment trends in the U.S., Asia Society and RCG have partnered to fill this gap to provide an authoritative account of Chinese investment stocks and flows into U.S. real estate. Breaking Ground: Chinese Investment in U.S. Real Estate provides a necessary resource for any investor, builder, financier, or service provider looking to stay ahead of this fast-moving trend, while also providing common ground for the broader debate, too often ideological and acrimonious, over U.S-China trade and investment.

The report was launched at events in New York (May 16), San Francisco (May 24), and Los Angeles (May 25). The report will be launched in Shenzhen on November 15 and Shanghai on November 17.

近几年中国在美国的投资呈井喷趋势。2013 年出现重要转折点，这一年中国对美国的外来直接投资首次超过美国对中国的投资。在美国，房地产行业占据中国投资最大份额且占比远超其他行业，既有住宅用房地产也有商用房地产，这一快速增长的趋势成为亚洲协会 (Asia Society) 与罗森咨询集团（Rosen Consulting Group,简称 RCG） 开展的一项大型新研究项目的关注焦点，RCG 是美国最具影响力的房地产咨询、研究与分析公司之一。

目前估计有 2000 亿美元的中国投资注入美国房地产债券，主要是长期资产支持型证券。自 2011 年开始，直接投资十分火爆，特别是在纽约与加利福尼亚。据估计，在 2014 年汇率制下注入商业房地产的中国投资高达 100 亿美元，注入住宅房地产的中国投资则超过 280 亿美元。虽然每次新交易（特别是美元数额巨大的投资）的宣布都会促使有关个人交易的新闻报道增加，但很少有分析研究对这种快速增长的趋势提供宏观视角，且无一研究尝试对整体中国投资进行综合分析。

为填补这一空白，亚洲协会与 RCG 携手合作，基于亚洲协会过去对美国境内的中国投资趋势研究，对注入美国房地产的中国投资股票与资金提供权威性说明。开创性视角：美国房地产领域的中国投资为寻求在这迅猛发展趋势中抢占先机的所有投资者、建造商、融资人或服务提供商提供必要的资源，同时也为围绕美中贸易投资的广泛辩论提供了公共基础，这些辩论多着眼于意识形态，意见纷纭。
