Economic Information Daily, 5th Special Report: Jessie Chen, Chief Executive Officer of HKEX (00388), said during her attendance at the Global Youth Power Summit that investors are currently paying significant attention to sectors such as technology and AI, resulting in very strong IPO demand in these sectors. She noted that the proportion of technology stocks in HKEX's daily trading volume has increased from about 20% several years ago to approximately 43% currently, consistent with global investment trends.
Regarding investors' observations that the U.S. market is becoming somewhat overly concentrated in the AI field, she stated that the fundamental function of capital markets is to match capital with opportunities, and she hopes markets can remain inclusive. The group focuses on ensuring that all technology and AI enterprises are welcome, without compromising other industries or smaller-cap companies.
On listing mechanisms, she mentioned that the group continuously reforms the market to maintain its competitiveness, citing Chapter 18C of the Main Board Listing Rules as an example, highlighting the group's ability to create provisions tailored to the specific needs of different types of companies.
