In the presence of over 80 distinguished guests from the financial, business, and academic sectors, Mr. Yue elucidated the robust nature of Hong Kong’s financial and monetary systems. His address emphasized Hong Kong’s resilient financial ecosystem and its vital role in the international finance arena.
