An "At Jing'an, @ future"-themed financial and trade promotion conference was 
held by Shanghai's Jing'an District in London recently to provide investors 
with new opportunities in its high-standard opening up, according to Jing'an 
Office of Financial Services.

On June 2, Wang Hua, head of the Jing'an District government introduced on the 
conference the general situation, industrial layout and business environment of 
Jing'an to experts and investors in the financial and business community of the 
UK.

Jing'an District, which takes all the time services to businesses as one of its 
core responsibilities, boasts over 300 office buildings, more than 70 
industrial parks and nearly 4.7 million square meters of grade A office areas 
that can offer excellent industry development space for companies.

The district government also launched 24-hour responding services for custom 
clearance of goods, entry and exit of employees and cross-border investment and 
financing of companies in the district.

As a district where chambers of commerce, industrial organizations and economic 
and investment promotion institutions of many foreign nations gather, Jiang'an 
always serves as a characteristic, practical and rewarding cooperation and 
communication platform for multinational companies (MNCs).

Currently, Jing'an District has attracted many industry-leading global 
enterprises to establish businesses there, including the Christie's Auction 
(Shanghai) Co., Ltd., Burberry (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd., AstraZeneca Global 
China R&D Center, Schroder BOCOM Wealth Management Co., Ltd., and Baillie 
Gifford Investment Management (Shanghai) Limited.

With Nanjing West Road business circle construction in full swing and 
construction of its global asset management center building beside Suzhou River 
on agenda, Jing'an District is crafting an international industrial and 
ecological circle that vigorously supports development of MNCs, asset 
management companies and other commercial, trade and finance businesses as well.
