The number of newly registered market entities in north China's Tianjin Pilot Free Trade Zone grew 138 percent and the registered capital went up 243 percent year-on-year in half a year, official statistics showed.

Between April 21 and Oct. 20, the Tianjin FTZ saw 7,958 new entities with a total registered capital of 212 billion yuan (33 billion U.S. dollars).
