Hong Kong’s Financial Secretary Says Quality IPOs No. 1 Priority

Hong Kong Financial Secretary Paul Chan said the government was committed to keeping up a strong supply of initial public offerings, underscoring the importance of the city’s stock market as Beijing intensifies regulatory scrutiny of some overseas listings.

“The number one priority is to ensure there will be a continuous supply of quality issuers coming to Hong Kong,” said Chan at the Bloomberg Family Office Summit in the city on Wednesday.
