“Under the plan, endorsed by the State Council on Wednesday, Shanghai is expected to allow companies to freely convert foreign exchange within specified areas of the city while allowing free capital and commodity inflow for the entire city. Mayor Yang Xiong said Shanghai’s future hinged on the free trade zone, which could give the city a leg-up over rivals. Shanghai’s ambitions to become the nation’s economic engine, leapfrogging Hong Kong as the dominant financial hub in the region are an open secret. The long-awaited policy incentive granted by the cabinet will only add heft to the city’s attempts to attract global capital and talent.”
