Hong Kong will roll out the red carpet to hundreds of top global bankers and finance executives in November a high-level financial conference to be hosted by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA).

The city’s de facto central bank is organising the third edition of the Global Financial Leaders’ Investment Summit from November 18 to 20, according to HKMA CEO Eddie Yue Wai-man.

“The summits in the past two years have been a proven success to bring in top executives of international firms to Hong Kong to witness our developments,” Yue told a media briefing after attending a Legislative Council meeting on Monday.

“The executives who attend the summit can also meet local staff and clients, while some of them could also visit the mainland. They can share their insights about Hong Kong when they return home, which are important to tell a good story about Hong Kong.”

The HKMA has sent invitations to CEOs and senior banking and finance executives, Yue said. Some 60 top financiers have accepted or shown an interest in attending, while more are expected to respond later.
