Hong Kong outlines 5-year plan for market growth and China integration

Hong Kong is developing a five-year plan to enhance its market by focusing on governance and strategic direction, aiming to leverage its strengths in connecting global capital and resources. The plan emphasizes deeper integration with mainland China, particularly in technology, by developing science parks in the Northern Metropolis and combining mainland China's tech capabilities with Hong Kong's financial markets and legal institutions. Overcoming existing hurdles to the free movement of people, goods, capital, data, and intangible assets is crucial for this integration and for Hong Kong to contribute more significantly to the national economy.
