ABSTRACT: Based
on the panel data of 16 cities between 2003 and 2018 in China City Statistical
Yearbook, this paper analyses the current situation and the influencing factors
of Producer Services Agglomeration in the Yangtze River Delta. The research adopts spatial econometric methods with spatial weight matrix. The
empirical result shows that the agglomeration trend of producer services in
Yangtze River Delta is obvious, and the spatial agglomeration pattern is gradually
formed. Opening degree and human capital have positive impacts on producer
services agglomeration. The agglomeration is negative. And city scale has no effect on the agglomeration. At last, the paper puts forward some suggestions to improve the level of producer
services agglomeration in the Yangtze River Delta.
