Shanghai grew to importance in the 19th century due to its favorable port location and as one of the cities opened to foreign trade by the 1842 Treaty of Nanking. The city flourished as a center of commerce between east and west, and became a multinational hub of finance and business by the 1930s. Reforms in 1990 have resulted in intense development and financing, and in 2005 Shanghai became the world's busiest cargo port.
