Why Hong Kong?
Hong Kong is Asia’s World City
With nearly 8,000 overseas and mainland Chinese companies having chosen Hong Kong as their home, no other city has ever quite succeeded in stealing the show from Hong Kong in the contest to win the much coveted title “Asia’s World City”. Lauded for its economic freedom, competitiveness, opportunity and ease of doing business, and for its role as an international financial centre and the key gateway to China, Hong Kong is truly one of a kind.

A Gateway to and For China
Long been dubbed the “gateway to China”, Hong Kong has been facilitating trade between the East and the West and, in particular, between mainland China and the rest of the world.
To complement the Chinese government’s “going out” strategy as China becomes increasingly outward-looking, Hong Kong has been acting as a gateway for China to access overseas markets. According to the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), around 60% of the stock of China’s foreign direct investment outflows amounting to US$656.9 billion were made to Hong Kong in 2015. The HKTDC also adds that Hong Kong provides the preferred platform for mainland Chinese enterprises when seeking professional services to capitalise on opportunities from the “One Road, One Belt” initiative.
