Shanghai Lixin University of Accounting and Finance

Shanghai Lixin University of Accounting and Finance is a full-time general higher education institution offering distinctive accounting and finance programs. It was formed in June 2016 by amalgamating Shanghai Lixin University of Commerce and Shanghai Finance University. The name "Lixin" comes from a saying from the Analects of Confucius, "Without credibility, you won’t have a place in the world." The history of the University can be traced back to 1928, when Pan Xulun, a famous educator and accountant honored as the “Father of Modern Accounting in China” founded Lixin Accounting School. In 2011, it was qualified for conferring the professional master's degree in auditing.
