HKEX's Strategic Plan 2016-2018

Date 21/01/2016

1 OVERVIEW

Hong Kong is entering a new phase as a leading international financial centre. The scale and depth of the world’s interaction with Mainland China’s markets and investors are being transformed by two-way capital flow opening, domestic reforms and Renminbi (RMB) globalisation. While Mainland corporates begin to formulate their internationalisation blueprints, a large number of Mainland investors are starting to meaningfully enter the global financial markets for the first time, seeking investment opportunities and wealth diversification. At the same time, the Mainland markets themselves are changing, especially in commodities where an increasing need for the market to ‘physicalise’ and internationalise has become apparent.

We believe that this new chapter in financial markets history presents Hong Kong and HKEX with a large number of compelling, even transformative opportunities in multiple asset classes. Building on our heritage as a leading cross-border access platform and as a destination market in our own right, we aim to expand and entrench this model across equity, commodities, fixed income and currency – becoming a true multi-asset platform that connects China with the world.
