Hong Kong market surge, geopolitics drive ‘fear of missing out’ among French investors
Hong Kong's financial secretary, Paul Chan, reported a notable increase in French investor interest in the city. This renewed confidence is attributed to Hong Kong's robust market performance, which saw a 28% rise in its stock market in 2025, and an improved geopolitical climate, particularly following a summit between US and Chinese leaders. French businesspeople operating in Hong Kong have also indicated strong operating profits over the past two years, further bolstering positive sentiment. AI
