This study investigates whether the international trade of a country-owned network significantly affects the international financial investments. We use top 50 international financial investments countries as samples, and research method is two-way error component regression model. The empirical results show that the international trade of a country-owned network has significant effect on the international financial investment activities. Countries with more free trade agreements have high level of import and export trade betweenness centrality, low level of closeness centrality, and high level of import degree centrality. Moreover, countries with low level of export degree centrality have higher foreign financial investments.
