In an exclusive interview with the South China Morning Post, Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po provided an update on the city’s drive to draw international and national brands and strategic enterprises to set up business in Hong Kong through dedicated preferential arrangements.
“We are in close discussions with a few. We hope to conclude this as soon as possible and make the announcement. The target is in the next couple of months,” Chan said.
