Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, good morning. Welcome to the Hong Kong FIC and Bond Connect Summit.
In a fast-changing global landscape, holding our second Summit in just nine months underlines the strong commitment we all share to Hong Kong’s fixed income and currency, or FIC, markets. Building on the momentum from our FIC Roadmap announced last September, today’s gathering is about turning that vision into deeper collaboration and concrete action.
My message today is threefold.
First, FIC markets are indispensable to Hong Kong’s high-quality growth.
To see why, imagine Hong Kong’s financial market as a rainbow. To be whole, a spectrum needs every shade. By advancing our FIC markets, we anchor the stable, fixed-income frequencies at one end; balancing the dynamic, high-growth instruments at the other. This complete spectrum is our vision — a comprehensive, diversified ecosystem for capital raising and investment.
