English to Spanish Other Economics

Estimados traductores:
Junto con saludar, agradecería a ustedes indicarme qué equivalente sería más apropiado para la frase nominal “foreign investment pattern” según el contexto. A continuación adjunto el párrafo en donde esta aparece:
Rosen and Hanemann (2009) explicitly point out that China is capable of challenging the existing foreign investment pattern, resulting in a powerful impact on international politics and foreign relations. China's Western rivals fear being crowded out of foreign markets because Chinese firms are backed by the government with low-cost credits and soft budget constraints seemingly without limits. As the world's dominant FDI source countries, members of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) may be the most affected by China's rapid rise as a business superpower. Outward investments by OECD countries grew at less than a quarter of China's rate during the period 2003–2009.

Agradeciendo de antemano, se despide cordialmente,
Ángela
