Asia, Africa & Middle East Committee
Investment Opportunities in New Zealand
Kenny Lau, Investment Manager at Invest New Zealand, visited the Chamber on 13 February to exchange information and views on a wide range of topics. Lau was received by Asia, Africa & Middle East Committee Chairman Dewan Saiful Alam, and Vice Chairmen Qamar Minhas and Elton Chan.
Discussing New Zealand’s advantages for Hong Kong investors, Lau said both regions share similar political, legal and government frameworks, as well as a common language in English. Additionally, the country’s membership in the Five Eyes alliance has ensured its geopolitical stability. He mentioned that businesses have been routing goods through New Zealand for re-export to the United States and the Chinese Mainland to mitigate the impact of tariffs.
