Nicolas Aguzin, Chief Executive Officer said: “Throughout 2022, HKEX demonstrated focus and resilience, launching a range of important strategic initiatives and introducing a range of new products and market enhancements. These included the most significant developments to our mutual-market access Connect franchise since it was first established, the launch of Core Climate - Hong Kong’s first carbon trading platform, and the introduction of a host of new Derivatives and ETF products. And despite the challenging global economic and geopolitical backdrop, HKEX remained one of the world’s premier capital raising venues, with positive sentiment returning to the IPO market in the second half, culminating in a total of 90 new companies from a range of sectors and geographies successfully joining our markets in 2022. HKEX Derivatives Market also had another record year, with Hong Kong fast becoming the region’s key risk management centre. The year finished very strongly for HKEX, with the Group reporting record fourth quarter financials, offsetting in part the softer volumes and numbers in the first half. Whilst the road ahead will not be without challenges, we are excited about the year ahead and we look forward to continuing to execute on our vision to build the Marketplace of the Future.”
