Chen Maobo: Currently, over 200 companies are in line to prepare for listing in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po, in an interview with the media, stated that the performance of Hong Kong's IPO market this year has been impressive, with an increasing number of Chinese companies listing in Hong Kong. Currently, there are over 200 companies in line preparing to list in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority will host an International Financial Leaders Investment Summit next month, with approximately 100 CEOs or chairpersons planning to attend. Data shows that stock financing in Hong Kong in the third quarter (including IPOs, rights issues, and block trades) has reached a four-year high, with the financing amount in just three months exceeding the scale for the whole of last year. Paul Chan Mo-po mentioned that for mainland companies going global, using Hong Kong as a platform to raise funds, hire talent, and help them expand overseas businesses is a very good business choice.
