Abstract

Hong Kong is currently Asia’s leading IFC. It owes its success to its low taxes, sound legal system, efficient regulatory regime and proximity to China. The Hong Kong government’s commitment to free market principles, a laissez-faire model of financial governance and general political freedom has also contributed to the city’s attractiveness as a location for doing business and expatriate living. This chapter discusses Hong Kong’s development as an IFC by focusing on its determinants of comparative advantage, model of financial governance, regulatory regime, financial policy mix and financial policy subsystem.
