Abstract The authors study the impact of institutional factors on the location choice of Chinese enterprises ODI based on the investment motives by using the 275 observation data during 5 years from 55 countries. The finding is that compared with enterprises with other investment motives, Chinese enterprises aimed at getting natural resources, paying less attention to the institutional factors. However, because of the limitations of China's market economy development and the reasons of the enterprises themselves, enterprises aiming at expanding market share or getting strategic assets don’t attach sufficient importance to some institutional factors.
