港交所(00388.HK)拟投资数据科技公司
港交所(00388.HK)今天宣布已签订意向书,拟收购北京一家数据科技公司华控清交信息科技(北京)有限公司(华控清交)的少数权益。这是港交所落实科技发展战略、探索大数据业务的举措之一。
华控清交专攻多方安全计算(Multi-party Computation)技术的研发工作。多方安全计算是密码学的一个分支领域,通过这项技术可以在数据加密的前提下实现多方数据分析。
华控清交获主要大股东清华大学鼎力支持。华控清交的研发团队由公司首席科学家、2000年图灵奖得主及清华大学交叉信息研究院创始人姚期智教授领导。
港交所集团行政总裁李小加表示,相信数据将很快成为金融市场上的一个新资产类别,因此,很高兴能够与华控清交合作,共同实现建立数据市场的愿景。
港交所认为多方安全计算技术是一项非常安全、可靠和实用的技术,能够解决有关数据确权、安全和私隐保护等重要议题。港交所相信,拥有强大高效的多方安全计算技术平台是构建未来数据市场的关键。
李小加亦表示,拥抱科技是港交所最新战略规划的三大基石之一,这次的投资和港交所之前投资深圳的一家科技公司以及香港一家虚拟银行的少数股权一脉相承,都是港交所拥抱科技的战略部署。
交易尚待双方签署具约束力协议作实。双方拟於2019年第四季完成交易。
