'Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect' Exceeds RMB 1 Trillion

The cumulative turnover of the Hong Kong and mainland China stock market connectivity program, the 'Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect', has surpassed RMB 1 trillion. This achievement comes approximately five years after the program's launch, with the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) holding an event to commemorate the milestone. A senior Hong Kong government official lauded the program for invigorating both markets and providing greater opportunities for investors.

Strengthening Hong Kong-Mainland Market Integration Expected

The 'Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect' facilitates stock trading between Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China. Introduced in 2017, following the 'Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect' in 2016, it has served as a conduit for foreign investors to invest in mainland A-shares and for mainland investors to access Hong Kong stocks. This milestone of RMB 1 trillion indicates an increasing integration and connectivity between the two markets, with expectations for greater capital inflows in the future.
