English term or phrase: share
Estimados traductores:

Me dirijo a ustedes para pedirles que por favor me ayuden con el equivalente del término "share", el cual aparece en la siguente idea: The OFDI share of OECD countries in the global total decreased alongside an increase in China's share.

A continuación adjunto el párrafo en donde aparece. El texto trata sobre las inversiones extranjeras directas (IED).

The key research question in this paper is whether China's outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) has had any displacement effect on that of other countries, especially those in the OECD. A preliminary examination of Fig. 2 may show such evidence. The OFDI share of OECD countries in the global total decreased alongside an increase in China's share. Whether this evidence is statistically significant requires much more careful econometric analysis, which is the main objective of this paper. In addition, the empirical models will help in identifying the key determinants of China's OFDI and to differentiate its impact on the different kinds of host and home countries of foreign investments.

Muchas gracias.
Ángela M.
