Hong Kong Securities and Futures Professional Association: The five-year plan has a clear direction and is positive for both the industry and Hong Kong's overall competitiveness.

Zhitong Finance APP has learned that John Lee, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, delivered Hong Kong's first five-year plan and a new Policy Address. The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Professional Association stated that the plan takes Chapter 2, which strengthens the four major centers and the building of a highland for talent aggregation, and Chapter 4, which deepens the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and builds a global cooperation network, as important pillars. It not only consolidates Hong Kong's traditional advantages as an international financial, shipping, and trade center, but also cultivates new growth points through innovation and technology, high-end talent, regional coordination, and international cooperation. The association believes that the plan has a clear direction and comprehensive layout, is highly aligned with the national development strategy, and is positive for both the securities and futures professional sector and Hong Kong's overall competitiveness.
