Latin America's importance as a destination for Chinese investment, and its strategic importance to China's economic development, is growing. In recent weeks there have been two $10 billion deals for Petrobras, $3.1 billion to Bridas, a $3 billion bid for the Peregrino oil field, $2 billion for Toromocho copper mine, $400 million to MMX, $200 million for the Jaguar Energy , plus Sinopec's Petrobras deal, the CIC's ongoing investment programs in Brazil and Mexico, and active diversification to Latin America and other emerging markets by Chinese institutional and direct investors.
