    Paul Chan Mo-po, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong SAR, provided Asia House Corporate Members with the latest updates on Hong Kong’s business environment and economic direction at an off-the-record digital briefing on Tuesday, 23 April.  

    Speaking from Hong Kong, Secretary Chan discussed the government’s efforts to attract strategic enterprises and new capital from the Middle East, ASEAN, and Mainland China into Hong Kong. The SAR’s digital transformation initiatives and green finance policy, as well as the Cross-boundary Wealth Management Connect Scheme in the Greater Bay Area (GBA), were also discussed.  

    Asia House Corporate Members asked Secretary Chan for his views on a wide range of topics, including Hong Kong’s role within the GBA policy, central bank digital currency developments, the SAR’s support for the consumer economy, and growing tensions between tech ecosystems in China and the US.   

    Chaired by Asia House Chief Executive Michael Lawrence OBE, the digital briefing offered Asia House Corporate Members valuable insights into Hong Kong’s strategy to maintain its global relevance and role as an international business centre.
