  • (1888PressRelease) December 09, 2016 - Yamada International's Raymond Mckenzie - Senior Vice President of Wealth Management said "We expect the newly-launched link (Shenzhen Connect), which went live on December 5, to assist in our target of attracting clients from the mainland."

    The launch of the cross-border link comes two years after the introduction of the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect (Shanghai Connect) - the pilot scheme that enables international investors in Hong Kong to invest in A-share large caps listed in Shanghai, and vice versa.

    Raymond Mckenzie, states in a report that the launch (of the Shenzhen Connect) signifies an easing of capital outflow concerns and provides international investors with access to China's most dynamic equity market.

    The current list of eligible stocks for the southbound Shenzen-Hong Kong link is being expanded to include constituents of the Hang Seng Small Cap Index with market capitalisation above HK$5 billion (US$644 million).

    Mr. Mckenzie elaborates that the Shenzhen Connect has added another 102 stocks to the list, bringing the total number of stocks to 417. "Hong Kong-listed China small caps trade at 30% cheaper than the large caps, and much less compared to the 168% premium in the A-share market. We expect inflows from the Shenzen Connect to further support the re-rating of Hong Kong-listed China small caps."

    Mr. Mckenzie went on to say "We firmly believe the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect will enable us to increase our worldwide customer base as well as our main target of Mainland investors".
