HSBC China's Chen Qingyao: The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area will gradually shift from being a "testing ground" that integrates with the mainland to a "highway" that connects internationally.

On November 19th, the "19th Shenzhen International Financial Expo and 2025 Annual Meeting of Chinese Financial Institutions" was held in Shenzhen. Chen Qingyao, Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Greater Bay Area of HSBC China, stated during the sub-forum "Chinese Banking Industry Annual Meeting" that it is important to promote the deep integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation, and to build a more internationally competitive modern industrial system in the Greater Bay Area. One key point is to further enhance internationalization, leverage the policy advantages and location advantages of the Greater Bay Area as an important platform for high-level openness, and accelerate the deeper integration of local enterprises into the global industrial chain and value chain, continuously expanding the application scenarios of technological innovation, and achieving intelligent, green, and integrated development. Chen Qingyao stated that under the drive of national high-level openness, the integrated development of the Greater Bay Area will continue to deepen, and the connection of rules and the docking of mechanisms among the three regions will take a new step. The Greater Bay Area will gradually transition from being an "experimental field" closely aligned with the mainland to a "high-speed road," becoming a model for open connection to the world and innovation-driven development.
