China: China is expected to overtake the US as the world's leading recipient of corporate investment in the next five years, and should become the most influential country in IT and telecoms, industrial products and mining, a new study of future global capital flows has found.

China should receive significant investments from 24 per cent of corporates surveyed in 2013/14, up from 17 per cent this year.
