This report makes a thorough study on all investment projects financed by 32 listed companies from 2000 to 2008, and also makes a summary on investment trend of China's financial service industry and investment trend and features of the listed companies.

In the period 2000 to 2007, investment of China listed financial service companies experienced a stage of rise, fall and rise again. The amount of investment in the period 2000-2005 was far less than that in the period 2006-2007. The investment increased to CNY230.93 billion in 2007 from only CNY1.05 billion in 2000. The two factors to which such a surge in investment was attributed are as follows: firstly more financial companies went public after 2006; secondly, China's financial industry accelerated the pace of development.

Since 2000, North China has attracted most of investment of China listed financial service companies, taking up 43.99% of the total investment. The major reason is that headquarters of most of China's financial institutions are located in Beijing, capital of China, followed by East China where Shanghai, China's financial hub, is located, taking up 26.68% of the total. It is worth noting that overseas investment of the listed companies amounts to 11.47% of the total, showing that China's financial companies are expanding beyond China gradually.
