许正宇:将找适当时机会将「证券无纸化」提交立法会审议
阿思达克 08-19 17:22
财经事务及库务局局长许正宇以「没有暑假的仲夏」为题发表网志,表示自己趁立法会暑假未复会之际,争取机会与本地金融服务界、20个相关金融行业组织、金融科技初创公司、世界经济论坛(World Economic Forum)小组、加拿大及澳洲相关商会等就香港的金融市场发展进行交流。他指出会面中大家都不约而同地对环球市场的前景表示忧心,毕竟现在面对的是新冠疫情与中美角力叠加的双重挑战,2020年将注定成为历史性的一年,不但经历了因疫情而来的经济衰退,亦目睹了全球化的日益倒退。

他指出5月至7月经季节性调整的失业率为6.1%,比上期公布的数字稍为改善了0.1%。由於就业情况依然严峻,政府一直以来想方设法,在「防疫抗疫基金」下推出各项扶助金融业界的计划。而早前推出的金融科技「千人计划」在短短一个多月内已收到接近400份申请,当中超过110份已获初步审批可进行招聘程序,部份企业更已成功聘请新员工。为了提供更大的支持力度,财库局已经在准备「千人计划2.0」,并将拓展至涵盖金融业界的多个范畴。

他指出有年轻的金融及科技专业人士向他反映,部分国家或地区可能不再欢迎外来人才参与发展,他们在外不再得到「唯才是举,知人善任」的待遇。他又诚邀大家考虑登上一如既往开放自由的「香港号」之船,一起研究规划疫後经济复苏的航线。

他续指会与团队仔细研究,并多与业界交流,用好未来的议会时间,既做谋划亦做实事。同时亦会把握金融科技在新冠疫情下的新角色,推动其进一步的发展,除了支付科技在迈向「无现金」世代及在防疫抗疫中的意义。此外,就历经多年讨论商议的证券无纸化改革,他会审视未来在立法会的议事情况,找出适当时机将法案提交审议,为过渡至证券无纸化做好准备。(el/a) ~
