HK ranks 4th in global finance index
Hong Kong maintained fourth place in the Global Financial Centres Index 35 Report published today by the UK's Z/Yen and the China Development Institute from Shenzhen.
The Government said under the “one country, two systems” principle, Hong Kong enjoys the unique advantages of being backed by the motherland and connected to the world.
Hong Kong has been striving to align with the national development strategies and serve as an important node in the country’s domestic and international dual circulation through proactively integrating into the national development of the reform and opening up of the financial market, while maintaining the internationalised nature of the market and playing the role as the gateway between the Mainland and the world.
A series of policy initiatives have been announced in the 2024-25 Budget, seeking to better integrate capable government with an efficient market and to propel financial markets to new heights.
