HKEx Chief Executive Charles Li: Latest Charles Li Direct
What are the core values of the Hong Kong market? Can we maintain Hong Kong’s long-term competitive advantage while insisting on those values? In his latest blog post, HKEx Chief Executive Charles Li shares his thoughts on the core values of the Hong Kong market. In his view, it is investor protection, not simply “one share one vote”, that the Hong Kong market should uphold. “One share one vote” is just a rule suggesting that “capital is king” and whoever has capital controls a company’s destiny. Investor protection, however, encompasses wide-ranging laws and regulations. It is a consolidated framework that protects investors, particularly public investors, from wrongdoing. In this blog post, Li raises some difficult but thought provoking questions and calls for our participation in the discussions so that together we may contribute to the future well-being of Hong Kong.
