The Zhitong Finance App learned that on September 4, the Hong Kong Association of Banks held the annual “Outstanding People Lecture and Luncheon”. Sun Yu, Chairman of the Hong Kong Association of Banks and Vice Chairman and CEO of BOCHK (02388.HK), said 2026 is a critical year. The global financial landscape is changing, and international investors increasingly value Hong Kong's enduring strengths — stability, connectivity, and the country's unwavering support. Increased investor confidence has propelled Hong Kong to surpass Switzerland and become the world's largest cross-border wealth management center. At the same time, Hong Kong has further consolidated its position as a major financial center through measures such as promoting a gold settlement system and five-year treasury bond futures.
