At the end of two turbulent weeks Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited has announced its Strategic Plan 2016-2018.
The plan includes HKEX's business strategy for its three asset classes: equity, commodities and fixed income and currency, or FIC. It also covers the company's goals in client relationship management and platform enhancement as well as market microstructure and regulation.
The two main facets of HKEX's value proposition are related, as the company provides the most effective platform for cross-border market access; and a unique destination market in Hong Kong for products with both Chinese and international relevance.
A Bridge to China
«Our new strategic plan will help us expand the spectrum of our business and strengthen Hong Kong's financial markets, we want to be the global exchange of choice in all asset classes for our Mainland clients and for our international clients who want exposure to China,» said HKEX Chairman C K Chow.
HKEX is aiming to reach its new strategic goals over three years, though it expects accomplishment of some may take longer because it has an ambitious plan and development of financial markets is subject to many factors which are beyond HKEX's control.
