HKMC and CICC Infrastructure Finance MoU to Boost Hong Kong Role

The Hong Kong Mortgage Corporation (HKMC) and CICC infrastructure finance MoU has been signed to strengthen cooperation in infrastructure financing and securitisation. The partnership will target opportunities in the capital markets linked to infrastructure assets, broaden the investor base and explore renminbi-linked securitisation of infrastructure loans. The move is aimed at reinforcing Hong Kong’s role as a regional infrastructure financing hub. “A partnership with CICC is expected to assist in taking our business to the next level,” said HKMC CEO Colin Pou. CICC chairman Chen Liang added that the collaboration will combine CICC’s expertise in the Chinese market with its global perspective, enhancing China’s role in international finance and helping attract more overseas investors.
