HKEX considers opening offices in US and Europe to court global listings

The CEO of the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX), Nicolas Aguzin, says the two new offices being mooted in the US and Europe would promote HKEX as a fundraising centre for international companies and a gateway for international investors to access the mainland China market. Speaking with Post business editor Eugene Tang and chief business reporter Enoch Yiu, Aguzin said the move would ensure the HKEX would be closer to firms and investors in North America and Europe, as part of a drive to become a global marketplace for financial products.
