Risk Warning on Trading HK Stocks
Despite Hong Kong's robust legal and regulatory framework, its stock market still faces unique risks and challenges, such as currency fluctuations due to the Hong Kong dollar's peg to the US dollar and the impact of mainland China's policy changes and economic conditions on Hong Kong stocks.
HK Stock Trading Fees and Taxation
Trading costs in the Hong Kong stock market include transaction fees, stamp duty, settlement charges, and currency conversion fees for foreign investors. Additionally, taxes may apply based on local regulations.
HK Non-Essential Consumer Goods Industry
The Hong Kong stock market encompasses non-essential consumption sectors like automotive, education, tourism, catering, and apparel. Of the 643 listed companies, 35% are mainland Chinese, making up 65% of the total market capitalization. Thus, it's heavily influenced by the Chinese economy.
HK Real Estate Industry
In recent years, the real estate and construction sector's share in the Hong Kong stock index has notably decreased. Nevertheless, as of 2022, it retains around 10% market share, covering real estate development, construction engineering, investment, and property management.

Adds details on central bank's restructuring plan
By Khanh Vu
HANOI, Oct 17 (Reuters) - Vietnam can still meet its economic growth target this year despite the extensive damage caused by Typhoon Yagi and is open to the possibility of interest rate cuts, central bank deputy governor Dao Minh Tu said on Thursday.
Tu also told a media briefing that business and manufacturing activities were recovering from the typhoon.
"The central bank will continue to pursue supportive monetary policies during the rest of the year," Tu said.
"We will keep policy rates at least at the current levels, and are open to the possibility of further rate cuts."
The central bank, formally known as the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV), reported that bank lending had risen 9% as of Sept. 30 from end-2023.
Vietnam's economic growth largely relies on bank lending, and the central bank is targeting credit growth of 15% this year.
Vietnam's gross domestic product (GDP) rose 7.4% in the third quarter from a year earlier, the strongest pace in two years, as growth in exports, industrial production and foreign investment offset the initial effects of typhoon-related flooding and damage in September.
Average consumer prices in the first nine months of this year rose 3.88% from a year earlier, below the government's targeted inflation cap of 4.5% for the year.
At Thursday's meeting, the central bank also announced that the country's biggest bank, Vietcombank VCB.HM, will take over smaller lender Construction Bank and one of the leading commercial banks, Military Commercial Joint Stock Bank (MBBank) MBB.HM, will take over Oceanbank.
The moves are part of the central bank's restructuring programme to stabilise the financial sector and tackle non-performing loans, one of the largest banking consolidation operations in the country recently.
A central bank official at the briefing also highlighted a rising trend of non performing loans.
"The goal of the compulsory takeovers is for the banks to return to normal operations, handle their accumulated losses, ... and ensure depositors' rights," said Nguyen Duc Long, deputy head of the central bank's inspection department.
Under the restructuring plan, two other poorly performing commercial banks, DongA Bank and Global Petro Bank are still pending a restructuring plan.

Adds details, quotes from paragraph 2
HANOI, Oct 17 (Reuters) - Vietcombank VCB.HM and Military Commercial Joint Stock Bank (MBBank) MBB.HM will take over smaller lenders Construction Bank and Ocean Bank, respectively, Vietnam's central bank said on Thursday.
The moves are part of the central bank's restructuring program to stabilise the financial sector and tackle non-performing loans.
"The goal of the compulsory takeovers is for the banks to return to normal operations, handle their accumulated losses, ... and ensure depositors' rights," Nguyen Duc Long, deputy head of the central bank's inspection department, said at a briefing.
Last year, the State Bank of Vietnam submitted a plan to parliament to restructure four poorly-performing commercial banks, including via forced takeovers with stronger and more well-established counterparts.
