More than 30 global professional services institutions signed contracts Tuesday

to set up branches in Lujiazui, a finance zone in Shanghai, the Lujiazui

Administration Bureau of China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone announced

Tuesday.

On Tuesday, about 200 representatives from the world's top accounting firms,

law firms, consulting firms, and other high-end professional services providers

attended a meeting on promoting Lujiazui into a global hub of investment

information and services.

At the summit, professional services institutions such as DLA Piper, Mazars,

and CBRE also signed strategic cooperation agreements with the bureau to

promote investment.

The Lujiazui Financial City is already home to many of the world's leading law,

accounting, consulting, and human resources services providers.

A development plan for global professional services providers released by the

bureau on Tuesday seeks to attract more leading and intelligent professional

services institutions and promote high-quality industry development, said Yuan

Yefeng, deputy director of the Lujiazui Administration Bureau.
