'The location and investment climate are everything,' analysts explain

Several dozen Chinese and global finance giants and service outsourcing agencies now call a Guangdong financial service zone home, and this says a lot about its success in securing investors in the finance and service outsourcing sectors, local market analysts have said.

"The fact that 67 reputed financial enterprises home and abroad chose the Guangdong High-Tech Service Zone for Financial Institutions as their investment destination by late September speaks for its success," one analyst said.

Analysts attribute the growing glamour of the zone to its positioning and investment climate.
