许正宇:股票印花税升至0.13%建议8月1日实施没有「Plan B」 港金融市场竞争力非「斗平」
《财政预算案》建议将股票印花税由0.1%增至0.13%,财库局局长许正宇出席记者会时指,措施建议8月1日实施,预期2021/22财政年度额外收入将为80亿元,而全年额外收入则可达120亿元。他指出以往调整税率未必对成交额有相应影响,今次调整有考虑大量内地及国际资金流入、环球量宽政策、强劲的新股集资表现及新上市制度的正面影响。
他指出印花税上升目标清晰,目前计划8月1日实施,没有「Plan B」。至於如何提升来港上市企业种类,他指出预算案中提到港交所(00388.HK)会检视第二上市制度,包括是「同股不同权」公司是否仅限新经济企业等,之後会作市场谘询。
至於消息公布後港股急跌,他指出金融市场波动有各方因素造成,不会因为个别原因造成波幅,认为香港金融市场竞争力非「斗平」,亦要「斗好」,例如是扩张来港上市企业来源等,强调预算案有做相关的工作,同时亦希望做好香港的债券市场。
