Research on the suitability between fixed asset investment structure and industrial structure in China

Abstract

Using data from 2004 to 2012 in China, we built index system with a lag to evaluate the suitability between fixed asset investment structure and industrial structure in terms of China's four major economic regions. We found that there was deficiency in terms of fixed assets investment in primary industry and secondary industry, and redundancy in terms of fixed assets investment in tertiary industry, while the insufficient situation of fixed asset investment in primary industry was more serious than that in secondary industry. Furthermore, the suitability between fixed asset investment structure and industrial structure in northeast region is the most reasonable in comparison with that in other regions.
