HONG KONG: Hong Kong remains a competitive and attractive financial centre, Nicolas Aguzin, chief executive of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX), has said.

“It is home to open, globalised and transparent markets, robust infrastructure, internationally-aligned regulatory regimes, the rule of law, the free flow of information and capital, and a deep pool of talent,” said Aguzin, who joined HKEX in May after working in Hong Kong for nine years at JPMorgan.
