FSDC Says Hong Kong Well Placed to Link Asian Capital with African Projects

Hong Kong Asia-Africa investment corridor ambitions are gaining momentum, with the city well placed to link Asian capital with African infrastructure projects, according to a report by the Financial Services Development Council.

The FSDC said Hong Kong can serve as a premier gateway connecting long-term capital from institutional investors and family offices with projects across Belt and Road Initiative economies in Africa.

It highlighted opportunities for Hong Kong to export expertise in digital finance and named Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria and Rwanda as key entry points due to stable growth and sound financial infrastructure.

FSDC executive director King Au said deeper Asia-Africa integration could underpin a long-term partnership reshaping global growth.
