TREE NEWS reports: China’s stock of direct investment in BRICS countries reached $82 billion as of the end of 2025, with steady growth in recent years. Between January and July this year, roughly $4 billion in Chinese direct investment flowed into BRICS economies, directed mainly at manufacturing, construction and power sectors.
China’s direct investment in BRICS nations hits $82B at end-2025
The composition of this capital — manufacturing, construction and power — signals that Chinese outbound investment into BRICS economies is increasingly oriented toward productive capacity and infrastructure rather than purely financial flows, which matters for host countries building industrial bases. The steady accumulation, rather than a single surge, suggests a structural reallocation of Chinese capital toward markets where it faces fewer barriers. Whether this pace holds, and whether the sector mix shifts toward higher-value manufacturing, is the open question for those tracking BRICS supply-chain integration.
