China Desk

Helping bridge the gap between the UK and China with expert advice and international insight

Behind every successful international venture is a team that understands the culture, the regulations and most importantly, your ambitions.

Grunberg’s China Desk has been established to support both UK-based companies investing in China and Chinese businesses expanding globally.

Powered by great people who understand the detail

Our China Desk is led by Shirley Chan, Audit & Accounts Senior at Grunberg, and a member of the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

Shirley brings with her years of audit experience across Hong Kong, China, Singapore and Malaysia, with specialist knowledge of the retail and property sectors.

Shirley has supported clients with complex international listings, including assisting SPACs to launch on the US Nasdaq.

Her deep understanding of international standards and multilingual fluency in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English, make her an invaluable partner for businesses navigating multi-jurisdictional challenges.
