陳浩濂:將就持續公眾持股量具體建議進行進一步諮詢
署理財經事務及庫務局局長陳浩濂表示,上半年香港迎來42宗首次公開招股(IPO),合共集資超過1,070億元,已較去年全年多約22%,暫列全球第一。上市申請個案亦正快速增加,港交所於6月底正處理超過200宗上市申請,創下2021年同期以來的新高。
港交所和證監會一直致力完善香港上市制度,以便利更多優質企業在港上市,從而整體增強香港作為上市地的競爭力和活力。當局正進行全面檢視,研究範圍將涵蓋上市制度的多個層面。在協助企業融資外,亦需顧及保障投資者的權益及確保整體市場質素以吸引更多投資者來港投資,需要與不同持份者詳細溝通。港交所會按「成熟一項、推出一項」原則就優化建議適時對外公布,並進行公眾諮詢。
此外,港交所於去年12月就優化首次公開招股市場定價及公開市場的建議展開諮詢,當中包括按發行人的市值對其上市時的最低公眾持股量作分層規定,並就是否容許發行人在上市後有更大彈性維持較低的公眾持股量徵詢意見。港交所正整合和考慮收集到的意見,並將就持續公眾持股量的具體建議進行進一步諮詢。
另外,港交所已簡化海外發行人的上市規定,引入一套適用於所有發行人的核心股東保障水平以便利合規。在各項優化海外發行人上市機制的基礎上,港交所持續檢視其認可證券交易所的範圍,讓在海外主板市場上市的公司可在香港申請第二上市。港交所在今年3月進一步新增泰國證券交易所為認可證券交易所,將名單內的海外證券交易所數目增加至20間。
展望未來,政府聯同證監會和港交所會繼續加強對外推廣的力度,宣傳香港各個金融服務領域包括上市平台的最新發展和優勢。同時,港交所會探索進一步擴大認可證券交易所的範圍和簡化海外發行人的上市程序,並更積極為發行人提供指引,便利它們籌備來港上市。
