HK has much to offer Belt and Road Initiative: FS
Financial Secretary Paul Chan said on Sunday that Hong Kong can make unique contributions to the country's Belt and Road Initiative, because international investors have tremendous trust in the SAR's financial system.  Writing on his weekly blog, Chan said with Hong Kong having top financial institutions, talent and diversified financing channels, the SAR can help raise funds and draw big investments related to the initiative.  The financial chief said the government and the Trade Development Council will host a two-day summit on Belt and Road from Wednesday, and one of the key areas of discussion would be to explore new opportunities in the Middle East.  "Thousands of overseas and mainland political and business leaders, entrepreneurs and NGO heads will join the event to sum up the results and experiences for the decade-long initiative," he wrote. "We will also look into how we can promote high quality development in the region together, and how Hong Kong can make even more contributions." The minister noted that there will be more green infrastructure projects under the Belt and Road Initiative, adding that Hong Kong is definitely a leader in green finance.
