China / Hong Kong Stock Connect is a mutual market access program that allows investors in mainland China and Hong Kong to trade and invest in each other’s stock markets. This initiative aims to facilitate cross-border trading, broadening market access for international investors and providing more liquidity to both markets. Here’s a breakdown:

Two Main Programs:

Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect (launched in 2014): Connects the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX).

Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect (launched in 2016): Connects the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE) with HKEX.

Northbound Trading: Allows international and Hong Kong investors to buy eligible shares listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen exchanges through the HKEX.

Southbound Trading: Enables mainland Chinese investors to trade eligible shares listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange through the SSE or SZSE.

Quota Systems: The program initially had daily and aggregate quotas for trading to ensure controlled market access, though the aggregate quota was later removed in 2018. Daily quotas still limit the amount of money that can flow in and out each day.

In summary:

Provides foreign investors access to China’s A-share market.

Allows mainland Chinese investors to diversify their portfolio with Hong Kong-listed stocks.

Promotes market integration and opens up new opportunities for both retail and institutional investors.

伦敦作为国际金融中心之一，是世界上最大的外汇市场和除香港以外最大的离岸人民币市场，其自由贸易政策、法律体系完善等优势成为企业进入国际市场的最佳跳板。通过英国伦敦公司合派HUBFX开立英欧美加收款账户，企业可以实现更低成本的贸易资金快速流转，更快打通欧美与内地市场的贸易路径。不过，对于许多中小贸易企业来说，开户难、账户不稳定的问题始终难以解决。自行申请英欧美加银行账户，不仅流程繁琐、耗时长，且需要现场面签审核，开户条件非常苛刻。此外，随着CRS协议全球大范围实施以及国际监管政策愈加严格，许多英欧美加银行也加强了对开户公司的资格审查，这大大提高了企业的开户门槛。
