Date 26/02/2026

Bonnie Y Chan, Chief Executive Officer said:

In 2025, HKEX reinforced its role as a global superconnector, regained its position as the world’s leading venue for IPOs and set new trading as well as financial performance records. It was a year of momentum, progress and transformation for the Group, as ongoing reforms to our product ecosystem and market microstructure ensured we captured global investor trends, including the diversification of global capital and the surge in Asian innovation. Even as our markets experienced very robust performance during the year, we also maintained a strong pace of strategic delivery and continued to drive major reforms in our equities market, make strategic investments to expand our multi-asset ecosystem, such as acquiring a 20 per cent stake in CMU OmniClear, facilitate the launch of the first LME-approved warehouses in Hong Kong, and expand into adjacent businesses.
