An international EMBA program to train high-level Chinese talent in economic and financial management was launched in Shanghai on Thursday.
The program, jointly sponsored by the Bank of China, the Central University of Finance and Economics and London-based City University, is authorized to issue certificates valid both in China and abroad, sources said.
Michael Oliver, Lord Mayor of London, said the program will not only help establish close ties between London and Shanghai, both leading financial cities, but also greatly promote economic exchanges between China and Britain.
