Mainland investors urged to consider Hong Kong

Hong Kong investment officials on Sunday urged mainland companies to make use of the special administrative region's advantages as they prepare to go abroad and explore the international market.

"Our city is an excellent testing ground for mainland companies to 'go global' and access the world market," said Victoria Tang, associate director-general of Invest Hong Kong, a body under the SAR government charged with promoting investment.

She added that the Hong Kong SAR Government is committed to offering a business-friendly environment, an open economy, world-class infrastructure, a low and stable tax regime, and professionals equipped with an international perspective and knowledge of the Chinese mainland market.
