In 2009 China’s State Council announced the goal of establishing Shanghai as a global financial center by 2020. As that deadline approaches, AmCham Shanghai conducted a survey of financial services members and wrote a report titled Shanghai 2020: A Financial Vision Unfulfilled. The report concludes that Shanghai has not implemented the necessary reforms to achieve this goal and recommends policy changes to improve the city’s standing as a global financial center.
