Christopher Hui: There is still a lot of development potential in the Hong Kong financial market.

Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu pointed out in his speech at the HSBC Summit that despite geopolitical instability and the outbreak of war in the Middle East, the daily average trading volume of Hong Kong stocks in the first quarter of this year still rose to over 390 billion Hong Kong dollars, indicating that the outside world believes in the stability, credibility, and predictability of Hong Kong and reflects the results of Hong Kong's continued promotion of financial market development. John Lee Ka-chiu mentioned that there are still a lot of measures to develop the financial market this year, including the launch of the Hong Kong gold central clearing system, as well as the submission of draft legislation to the Legislative Council on regulations for digital asset custody, among others. He pointed out that last month, an international financial center index showed that Hong Kong ranked first in various areas such as banking, insurance, and financial technology. In addition to the advantages under "One Country, Two Systems," Hong Kong has huge potential for financial market development. Currently, 500 companies are waiting to go public, and it has also attracted 3,380 family offices to settle in Hong Kong. In the future, Hong Kong will continue to serve as a bridge between China and the world, playing an active role in international financial development rather than just being a mere spectator.
