新世界(00017.HK)郑志刚:集团资金足以应付数年所需 不会轻易作裁员决定
新世界(00017.HK)副主席兼行政总裁郑志刚在网上会议上表示,今年是新世界集团成立50周年,公司对香港很有感情,在半世纪中与香港经历不少风浪,但仍对此地方充满信心,相信香港在经济阵痛後会很快恢复过来,并走得更远。不论疫情如何发展都会继续投资香港。
他透露,现时集团可动用的资金达1,067亿元,包括现金及银行结余约670亿元,足以应付集团数年所需。另外,员工是公司的重要资产,因此并不会轻易作出裁员决定,希望能与他们共渡困难。
他认为,疫情令整个世界的运作模式出现根本性的改变,形容是「W式的疫情」,即表现反覆。他强调集团不会「等运到」,反而视疫情为契机,在疫情爆发後已作出快速的应变,强攻疫後新经济,将虚拟及实体经济结合,及将线上线下连接;硬件及软件共融,令集团能在疫情过去於不同业务有新突破。
他透露,集团已开展「疫後2.0」计划,将推出很多新项目,当中涉及建筑设计、零售及养生养老等方面,会将大众对生活的新要求放进其住宅、酒店及零售项目中,并与保险及不同软件相互结合。
