Shanghai Municipal Commission of Commerce deputy director Chen Hao said on Aug.
21 the commission will support Lingang New Area in further optimizing two-way
investment services during the '15th Five-Year' period. Policy measures will
target strengthening Lingang’s outbound-services brand and precise
industry-service matching, leveraging Shanghai’s corporate overseas service
platform and a Lingang sub-platform to integrate outbound-service resources,
fast-tracking the introduction of quality service firms and encouraging more
overseas-bound enterprises to locate headquarters in Lingang New Area. The
commission will also support improvements to cross-border finance, cross-border
trade and offshore-trade innovation, aiming to create a fairer, more transparent
and predictable investment environment and attract flagship foreign-invested
projects to boost industrial momentum.
