Hong Kong leader John Lee on Wednesday pitched the city’s connection with China in an address to some of the world’s top financial executives, as he strives to rebuild the Chinese territory’s COVID-hit image as a major financial hub.
Chief Executive Lee told the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s Global Financial Leaders’ Investment Summit that the city would continue working towards lifting coronavirus disease 2019 restrictions.
“Hong Kong remains the only place in the world where the global advantage and the China advantage come together in a single city,” Mr. Lee told roughly 250 summit participants, mostly local financial executives. Mr. Lee said that Hong Kong was working to attract top talent to offset a major brain drain seen in the past three years due to the pandemic rules.
Authorities, he said, were keen for more international companies to list in Hong Kong to grow the city’s capital market activities.
