Investment banks from Morgan Stanley to Citic Securities are on a hiring spree in Hong Kong and Shanghai for research analysts who can cover Chinese domestic stocks, banking on billions of dollars in funds descending on China’s capital markets.

Among brokerage firms planning to ramp up the number of research analysts are a host of Wall Street banks: Morgan Stanley plans to hire more than 20, Barclays is adding about a dozen analysts to cover as many as 100 stocks this year, Credit Suisse is hiring so it can increase coverage from 160 to 300 companies by the end of 2016, and HSBC is adding up to 15 staffers, according to the banks.
