Chamber Submission to the 2025 Policy Address

In the face of rising trade and economic policy uncertainty, Hong Kong must continue to reinforce its role as a free port and further cultivate its business-friendly environment. In its submission to the 2025 Policy Address, the Chamber has called on the Chief Executive to adopt a three-tiered approach to seize the opportunities in these uncertain times: creating confidence for immediate action, accelerating the transformation to a smart city in the medium term, and building long-term resilience to adapt to the evolving economic landscape.

Preliminary Development Proposal of Sites around Hung Hom Station and Waterfront Areas

The Chamber expresses broad support for the Government’s overarching vision for the development of the areas surrounding Hung Hom Station and its adjacent waterfront (“the Zone”), with particular emphasis on improving connectivity and commuting, and transforming the Hung Hom and Victoria Harbour area into a prominent harbourfront landmark; thereby reinforcing Hong Kong’s position as a world-class international city. We also offer specific comments on land use planning and design strategies to further enhance the Zone’s development. These include the adoption of a holistic and integrated development approach, a review of the residential-to-commercial ratio, and recommendations to further strengthen connectivity, branding, as well as the overall visibility and sustainability of the Zone.

Consultation on The Securities and Futures Commission Consultation Paper on Proposed Amendments to the Securities and Futures (Stock Market Listing) Rules

The Chamber welcomes the SFC's proposed amendments to the Securities and Futures (Stock Market Listing) Rules and their objectives of enhancing market efficiency, transparency, investor protection, and accountability. We agree in general with the proposals, viewing them as in line with international regulatory developments, whilst also offering suggestions to enhance their effectiveness. Recommendation is also given to the measured usage of SFC’s post-listing powers, which should be reserved for situations where there is clear risk of harm to the investing public, to preserve Hong Kong’s attractiveness for quality listings.
