港交所(00388.HK)史美倫:南向債券通料快有消息
港交所(00388.HK)主席史美倫出席論壇時表示,雖然在旅遊限制下與內地夥伴有定期的對話,但認為始終與直接見面有分別,而其他市場亦有繼續向內地客戶「敲門」,反而香港因檢疫問題未能這樣做,雖然香港有很多服務可提供,但客戶、潛在客戶需要更多聽到香港的聲音。她又指雖然針對部分上市公司有通關的計劃,但亦希望措施可擴展至其他行業。
她續指,香港作為「超級連繫人」透過互聯互通計劃將中國市場與世界接軌,未來希望進一步探索擴展計劃,除早前已公布的「跨境理財通」外亦希望擴張至ETF、固定收益及可持續金融等,而債券通南向交易亦料快有消息。
出席同一場合的商務及經濟發展局局長邱騰華被問及關口何時重關以及零感染數字要求是否太高,邱騰華指公共衛生層面人命不能以金錢衡量,強調香港與其他已發展地區比較從未封城,而政府亦努力防止傳播、提升檢測能力等,在旅遊氣泡方面兩度叫停,主要因為去年11月時本港情況不許可故要暫緩,而最近一次新加坡亦採取同樣負責任的態度叫停。他又指即使封關但經濟仍一直運行,部分受影響行業亦找到方法繼續運行,例如是會議展覽行業等部分亦轉向線上,政府亦有協助相關行業及中小企提升網上交易能力。
至於會否考慮放寬已接種疫苗人士的檢疫要求,邱騰華未有正面回應,僅指政府努力推動社區全面接種疫苗,假如獲社區積極參與或有機會可在防控理想情況下放寬部分檢疫要求,而現時在「疫苗氣泡」的概念下亦可以接種為基礎提供更大彈性,他舉例指現時與新加坡的旅遊氣泡及「公海遊」計劃亦是以接種、檢測為基礎放寬檢疫的要求。(el/k) ~
