- Investment within Mainland China
Analysis
Investment within Mainland China refers very specifically to investments that occur within the jurisdictional division of China that excludes Macau, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. This concept is understandable to American English speaking readers and makes it clear that a different legal regime applies to investments depending on the region.
Correct use of this term in investment contracts is essential in order to be unambiguous about the type of investment protection afforded by law.

- Domestic investment
Analysis
Where financial analysis is being performed on the Chinese market, the jurisdictional issue becomes less relevant. In the financial context, there is generally sufficient explanation in the context to avoid confusing readers about what domestic investment comprises within China.
