Leung Chun-ying (fifth right), Chief Executive of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Chairman Chow Chung-kong (fourth left) jointly beat a gong to mark the inauguration of the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect in Hong Kong on December 5.
Under the new scheme, mainland investors can trade shares on the stock exchange of Hong Kong through local brokers, and Hong Kong investors can buy and sell stocks on the tech-heavy Shenzhen bourse. The arrangement is the second link between mainland and Hong Kong capital markets, after the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect was launched in 2014.
