Registered UK companies play an increasingly important role in corporate tax planning and introduction of venture capital. The UK is a veteran capitalist country with the most complete British legal system in the world. With a well-developed economic system and banking system, registering a British company is very helpful for companies to establish an international image and open up overseas markets. London, the capital of the United Kingdom, is one of the world's largest international foreign exchange markets and international insurance centers. It is also one of the world's largest financial and trade centers, with its GDP in the forefront of Western countries. The United Kingdom is also an important member of 120 international organizations such as the European Union, NATO, Commonwealth, and Western European Union. It is China's second largest trading partner in the European Union.
