Hong Kong’s financial secretary said the city is well-positioned to help advance the goals of the Belt and Road Initiative because it is a global financial centre and an ideal venue for participating countries to exploit its robust expertise and international connections.
The initiative has delivered real results – benefiting countries across the globe – and has brought people together, Paul Chan said in a speech at the Belt and Road Summit on Wednesday. The city’s professional services and connection opportunities will facilitate greater collaboration and investment for belt and road participants, he added.
“Hong Kong is Asia’s premier fundraising hub. With a diverse equity, bond, and currency market, we provide an ideal environment for more governments and companies to raise funds for infrastructure, green transition, and community projects”, Chan said.
“Hong Kong will continue to leverage our unique position and strength as an international financial, trade, shipping, and professional services centre, striving to offer new opportunities and create value for economies, enterprises, and people along the belt and road region.”
