In short the influence of English law continues to grow. It is seen as the law of choice for international trade.

Those who are outside of the UK are usually doing so exactly because English law is the law of choice for international trade and so to be qualified as a solicitor of England & Wales is seen as a career advantage.
External QWE Confirmation Service
This is relevant to people who are NOT qualified as lawyers already.
