Deloitte is pleased to announce the opening of its Xi’an office in Shanxi
province, with the vision of helping domestic and foreign companies take full
advantage of the Belt & Road Initaitve and capture growing opportunities in
Western China as the country’s new economic engine. This will be the 3rd office
for Deloitte’s Western region practice and the 22nd office in its business
network in China.
The Deloitte brand entered into China in 1917, marking
the firm’s longstanding presence in the country. Deloitte possesses a wealth of
professional experience, high-quality service capabilities and a vast network
of resources. As a leading global professional services organization, it has 22
offices in China and over 13,000 people, providing audit & assurance,
consulting, financial advisory, risk advisory and tax & legal services for
Chinese enterprises, MNCs as well as fast-growing corporate clients based in
China. Deloitte is widely embraced and trusted by clients across the world.
Terence Cheung, Deloitte China
Western Region Managing Partner, stated, “Xi’an is the cradle of the
Chinese civilization, as well as a priority city in China. Under President Xi
Jinping’s Belt and Road Initiative, Xi’an has been endowed with new historical
value as the starting point of the Silk Road, driving infrastructural
development in the Silk Road economic belt and once again becoming an economic,
cultural and commercial hub in the region. By setting up an office in Xi’an,
Deloitte is making a crucial step on its path to expanding its professional
services network in the China market. This also signifies a pioneering move in
our firm’s plan to develop in high potential regions.”
“As we can see, Xi’an enterprises are actively
hoping to achieve sustainable development in local and regional markets by
seizing the opportunities along the Silk Road Economic Belt. We have chosen to
set up a new office in Xi’an at this auspicious time to align ourselves with
the demands of local government and enterprises, with the ultimate aim of helping
them realize strategic goals, and to assist with Xi’an’s long-term growth and
development,” Cheung added.
“In
alignment with the national Belt and Road Initiative, we are excited about the
abundance of business prospects that our new Xi’an office is expected to bring.
As more enterprises along the Belt and Road Initiative route seek to expand
into the Western China market, Xi’an’s strong talent, technology and culture
base and strategic geographical position will provide a convenient nexus for
these companies to set up a regional base in China. Deloitte, with our comprehensive
range of services in audit & assurance, financial advisory, risk advisory,
consulting, as well as tax and legal, and our comprehensive global network is
poised to be a supportive pillar for domestic and international clients ready
to go global and to tap into the Chinese market, who will no doubt require
extensive assistance on professional services,” said Patrick Tsang,
Deloitte China CEO. “Guided by national policy, we seek to help our
clients innovate and transform with the expertise and support of our
professionals.”
