China will introduce additional measures as needed to support the development of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as an international financial center, and will continue to help the city foster a freer and more open economic environment, Vice-Premier He Lifeng said on Tuesday.
周二何立峰副总理表示，中国将视情推出更多举措，支持香港特别行政区发展成为国际金融中心，并持续助力香港营造更加自由开放的经济环境。
Senior financial regulators have outlined plans to strengthen the HKSAR's offshore renminbi business, expand capital-market links with the Chinese mainland and facilitate cross-border investment and financing.
金融监管部门负责人介绍相关规划，将做强香港特区离岸人民币业务、拓展香港与内地资本市场互联互通、便利跨境投融资。
In a video address to the fifth edition of the Global Financial Leaders' Investment Summit, organized by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, the vice-premier said that the country's financial authorities have introduced a series of measures this year to reinforce Hong Kong's role as an international financial center. These include supporting mainland companies seeking Hong Kong listings, deepening mutual access between the two markets and bolstering offshore renminbi liquidity.
在香港金融管理局举办的第五届国际金融领袖投资峰会上，副总理发表视频致辞。他表示，国家金融监管部门今年已出台一系列举措，巩固香港国际金融中心地位，包括支持内地企业赴港上市、深化两地市场互联互通、增加离岸人民币流动性。
"We will continue to guide relevant departments in implementing these policies effectively and introduce additional measures in a timely manner as needed to inject further momentum and vitality into Hong Kong's financial development," he said.
他说：“我们将继续指导相关部门把各项政策落实落细，并根据实际需要及时出台新举措，为香港金融业发展注入更多动力与活力。”
The vice-premier also urged Hong Kong to fully leverage the advantages of the "one country, two systems" to build a higher-standard, free and open economic environment.
副总理同时提出，香港要充分发挥 “一国两制” 优势，建设更高标准的自由开放经济环境。
He called on the city to strengthen economic, technological and cultural ties with the rest of the world, making it easier and creating more opportunities for international investors, institutions and talent to establish and grow businesses in Hong Kong.
他呼吁香港加强同世界各国的经济、科技、文化联系，为国际投资者、机构和人才在港创业发展提供便利、创造更多机会。
"The central government will continue to give its full support to Hong Kong in preserving its unique status and advantages over the long term," he added.
他补充道：“中央政府将长期全力支持香港保持自身独特地位与优势。”
Zou Lan, deputy governor of the People's Bank of China, the country's central bank, said that as the world's largest offshore renminbi business center, Hong Kong will gain significant opportunities from the opening-up of mainland financial markets and the currency's growing international use, particularly amid international investors' growing demand to diversify their investments.
中国人民银行副行长邹澜表示，香港是全球最大离岸人民币业务中心，随着内地金融市场持续对外开放、人民币国际使用不断拓展，加之国际投资者多元化配置资产的需求上升，香港将迎来重大机遇。
"We will consolidate Hong Kong's position as an offshore renminbi business hub and support the development of a deeper pool of renminbi assets in the city," Zou said.
邹澜说：“我们将巩固香港离岸人民币业务枢纽地位，支持香港发展规模更大、层次更丰富的人民币资产池。”
As part of efforts to strengthen capital market cooperation, Li Chao, vice-chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, said that the regulator will further facilitate cross-border investment and financing, and accelerate work to include renminbi stock trading counters and real estate investment trusts in the Stock Connect programs. The programs link mainland stock exchanges with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
中国证监会副主席李超表示，作为深化资本市场合作的举措，证监会将进一步便利跨境投融资，加快推进人民币股票交易柜台、不动产投资信托基金纳入沪深港通，该机制连接内地证券交易所与香港联合交易所。
The commission will also support mainland companies seeking listings in Hong Kong as they expand overseas, he said.
他表示，证监会还将支持有海外布局需求的内地企业赴港上市。
Li Hongyan, deputy head of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, said the country's foreign exchange regulator recently released two draft policy packages for public consultation — one aimed at better meeting the diverse settlement needs of foreign trade companies and the other at easing cross-border investment and financing.
国家外汇管理局副局长李红燕介绍，外汇管理部门近期发布两项政策文件草案向社会征求意见，一项旨在更好满足外贸企业多样化结算需求，另一项着力便利跨境投融资。
The proposed measures will help companies participate more effectively in international trade and economic cooperation while giving fresh impetus to the development of the HKSAR as a global financial center, she said.
她表示，相关举措有助于企业更好参与国际经贸合作，同时为香港特区建设全球金融中心增添新动能。
