As the only national social organization in China's gold industry, the association will give full play to its role as a bridge, guide its member enterprises to make good use of Hong Kong's unique advantages as a "super connector" and "super value-adder," deepen alignment and cooperation in areas such as overseas financing, cross-border investment, trade settlement, brand going global, and international warehousing and logistics, and promote two-way empowerment between the mainland gold industry and Hong Kong's international financial resources, so as to better serve the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
