Huatai Securities has continuously expanded its international presence since its H-share listing a decade ago. Over the past ten years, Huatai Securities has facilitated nearly 600 domestic and international financing deals for enterprises globally, with a total fundraising volume of approximately USD 280 billion.

The event convened guests from the government, academia, business partners, and the investment community to explore strategic pathways for Chinese enterprises to leverage Hong Kong in the restructuring of global industrial chains. Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong SAR, delivered the opening remarks at the forum, stating: "Over the past decade, Hong Kong's capital market has continuously advanced through reforms, significantly enhancing its role in connecting the Mainland and the world. Amidst rapid global changes, China's innovative technology sector and its emerging enterprise value are creating new development opportunities for Hong Kong's financial market. Chinese financial institutions are key to this progress, and the SAR government anticipates collaborative efforts to accelerate our capital markets' development." Carlson Tong, Chairman of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited, emphasized the importance of Hong Kong as the Mainland's preferred offshore financing destination: "In the past decade, Hong Kong has raised over USD 300 billion in IPOs, primarily driven by Chinese enterprises. With technological innovation increasingly shaping our capital market, Hong Kong continues to provide vital financing channels for the global expansion of outstanding Chinese tech companies through ongoing institutional innovation." Over the past decade, Hong Kong has solidified its position as a leading financial hub, achieving HKD 2.2 trillion in IPO fundraising and ranking first globally on four occasions. As the IPO market regains its status as the second-largest globally in 2025, the increasing interest of Chinese technology companies in international capital reflects a broader transformation within Hong Kong's financial landscape.

Looking forward, we will continue to partner with domestic and international players to explore new opportunities and create mutual value."
