Across China: Shanghai

Financial firms look abroad

Representatives from 17 financial institutions in Shanghai will leave on Friday for New York, Toronto and Singapore to recruit high-end financial talent following last December's move in the United Kingdom and United States.

Organized by Shanghai Financial Development Center, institutions including banks, brokerage houses, fund management firms, and stock and commodities exchanges will offer 116 management-level positions during their nine-day stay in the three foreign cities.
