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.

Summary
As the high-end industry types in the value chain, producer services are of great importance to promote China’s economic quality development. About the influencing factors model of producer services agglomeration, domestic scholar Chen Jianjun constructed an analysis framework for the agglomeration factors of productive service industries earlier, and analyzed agglomeration factors from four aspects: knowledge intensity, city size, information technology and the system [5]. Due to the differences in the level of producer services in various regions [8] and the development of the productive service industry in the Yangtze River Delta is better [9] [10], this paper selects the Yangtze River Delta city as the research object to analyzes the state and influencing factors of the agglomeration of the producer service industry
