Gartner for IT Leaders Gartner for IT Leaders is an indispensable strategic resource, delivering timely, reliable insight to guide your key decisions and get the most from your highest-priority initiatives.

China’s Financial Centers Mar 13 Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai China’s exceptional economic growth since the 1980s to the present has fueled the rise of its financial centers—Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai—to top global rankings. As Asia-Pacific leader, Hong Kong is China’s window to global capital and one of the top three global financial centers, along with London and New York. Beijing is the political-regulatory center of China, and it has risen significantly as China’s banks become important global players. Shanghai is the commercial-financial center and continues its long-standing status as the Mainland’s major international center.

China’s government supports stock- and bond-connect programs, FinTech, internationalization of the renminbi, and the Belt and Road Initiative and associated Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB). These directly and indirectly build China’s internal financial center networks and support the centers’ increasing global links, especially with London. China’s political and economic policies maintain Hong Kong as a premier global center.
