The Contribution from Hong Kong to “One Belt, One Road”

The Belt and Road Initiative aims to promote connectivity in infrastructure, enhance trade relations and industrial co-operation, while fostering greater integration in the financial and other sectors among the countries along the Belt and Road. Given the globally dispersed investment projects and trade networks envisioned as part of the Initiative, Hong Kong is well placed to help companies seize these new opportunities and manage any related investment projects and business activities. This is largely on account of its status as an international hub with an independent legal system, as well as its low and simple tax structure, liberal trade and investment regimes, strong international networks, and free flow of information, capital and talents.

Hong Kong’s prominent service sectors - including its expertise in the financial, professional, infrastructure development, transportation services and information technology services sectors - are unique in Asia in terms of their international business orientation, depth of service, expertise and professionalism.

Infrastructure Services
The world-class architectural, surveying and engineering services companies in Hong Kong provide a full range of services. These include consultancy, design, planning and the management of infrastructure and related development projects. Many have proven records in large scale projects across Asia and in other regions.

Financial Services
The large concentration of international financial institutions in Hong Kong offers a wide range of services when it comes to fund raising and financing, fund and asset management, loan syndication, foreign exchange trading and international insurance. Hong Kong project financiers are skilled at advising, arranging and underwriting financing in a number of different currencies and disciplines, including Renminbi bonds and Islamic bonds.

Professional Services
Hong Kong’s dynamic cluster of local and international CPA firms, lawyers and management consultants offers a wide range of services for a variety of business sectors, including trade, industry, construction and maritime. These professionals can draw on their international expertise to conduct due diligence and valuation, provide advice on tax, legal and risk matters, and provide help in dispute resolution, notably in the area of arbitration.

Transportation Services
Hong Kong’s transportation services help everyone connect with their customers efficiently given its strategic location on major shipping routes and frequent direct flight service to major cities. Hong Kong’s regional hub position is also supported by its strong clusters of international maritime- and air-related services providers, including broking, chartering, financing, insurance and arbitration.

Information Technology Services
Hong Kong is ranked among the top in Asia in our telecommunications infrastructure, WiFi availability, broadband network and mobile penetration. Benefiting from the age of e-commerce, cloud computing, big data and Internet of Things and taking advantage of Hong Kong’s robust top-class ICT infrastructure and freedom of information, a large number of local and multinational IT service companies and talents have clustered in Hong Kong, providing a wide range of services from data centres, cloud computing, mobile solutions, IT security to e-payment for different business sectors, including banking and finance, transportation and logistics, commerce and entertainment.

With its availability of excellent services supports, Hong Kong has been acting as a two-way FDI hub, channeling some 50% of foreign investment into the Chinese Mainland, as well as handling 58% of the Chinese Mainland’s outbound investments. In 2014, Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland were, respectively, the second and third largest source of FDI outflow in the world.

Infrastructure development will form the first phase of the Belt and Road Initiative. The infrastructure, financial, professional, transportation and information technology service providers listed here are all able to advise, manage and provide supports to any related projects in the Belt and Road countries.
