The article analyzes modern investment strategies and the main trends in the activities of transnational corporations in these countries. The relevance of the article is due to the important role of TNCs in the international exchange of foreign direct investment, their significant contribution to improving the socio-economic level of their home countries, as well as strengthening and expanding trade and economic ties between the states of East Asia. When preparing the work, we used such quantitative research methods as statistical analysis, ranking, comparison. We use theoretical (descriptive analysis, content analysis) and empirical (working with official documentation) methods for collecting information. Official publications and materials of the UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), as well as the work of Russian scientists and researchers, made a significant contribution to the theoretical and factual base of the study. The article compares the total volume of assets held by corporations in the countries under consideration and the volume of foreign assets. The author analyzes the spheres of economy in which their TNCs are engaged and attempts to identify their international specialization. Singapore and Malaysia are defined as the Southeast Asian countries that are most successfully developing the process of transnationalization of large businesses; however, business transnationalization is uneven in the sub-region. Various motives for the transnationalization of large businesses in the compared countries are highlighted, as well as modern examples of their investment interaction, mergers, and acquisitions conducted by East Asian TNCs.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Целью исследования является сравнительный анализ современных стратегий внешнеэкономического развития и транснационализации крупного бизнеса в Японии, Китае и странах Юго-Восточной Азии. В статье изучаются современные инвестиционные стратегии и основные тенденции деятельности транснациональных корпораций этих стран. Актуальность темы обусловлена важной ролью ТНК в осуществлении международного обмена прямыми иностранными инвестициями, их весомым вкладом как в повышение социально-экономического уровня своих стран базирования, так и в укрепление и расширение торгово-экономических связей между государствами Восточной Азии. При подготовке работы использованы количественные методы исследования, а именно: статистический анализ, ранжирование, сопоставление. Используются теоретические (контентанализ) и эмпирические (работа с официальной документацией) методики сбора информации. Весомый вклад в теоретическую и фактологическую базу исследования внесли официальные публикации и материалы Конференции ООН по торговле и развитию (ЮНКТАД), а также работы отечественных ученых и исследователей. В статье сопоставляются такие экономические показатели, как располагаемые корпорациями суммарные объемы активов и объемы зарубежных активов. Анализируются сферы, в которых заняты ТНК рассматриваемых стран, обозначается их международная специализация. Сингапур и Малайзия определяются как страны ЮВА, которые наиболее успешно развивают процесс транснационализации крупного бизнеса, однако делается вывод о неравномерности этого процесса в субрегионе. Выделяются различные мотивы транснационализации крупного бизнеса сопоставляемых стран, а также приводятся современные примеры их инвестиционного взаимодействия, реализуемые ТНК Восточной Азии сделки слияния и поглощения.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>transnational corporations</kwd><kwd>TNCs</kwd><kwd>Japan</kwd><kwd>China</kwd><kwd>Southeast Asia</kwd><kwd>Singapore</kwd><kwd>Malaysia</kwd><kwd>investments</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>транснациональные корпорации</kwd><kwd>ТНК</kwd><kwd>Япония</kwd><kwd>Китай</kwd><kwd>ЮгоВосточная Азия</kwd><kwd>Сингапур</kwd><kwd>Малайзия</kwd><kwd>инвестиции</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Axiata Group.
