Has Hong Kong′s IPO boom hit a wall – or is a year-end rush still to come? (SCMP)
|
|
|
Hong Kong's initial public offering (IPO) momentum has cooled sharply in the fourth quarter amid market volatility and tighter regulatory scrutiny, but industry players say a year-end rush of listings could still help the city secure a top-three global ranking for 2026.
The market has slowed significantly since October, with only three new listings, all of which closed below their offer prices on debut.
Two other IPO candidates shelved their listings after completing procedures, testing Hong......

|
|
|
When hundreds of global finance leaders converge in Hong Kong this week, the question on their minds will be whether traditional investment strategies remain viable against escalating geopolitical friction and the rapid ascent of artificial intelligence.

Big Apple vs Pearl of the Orient? How higher taxes in New York may open door for Hong Kong (SCMP)
|
|
|
On November 4 last year, Zohran Mamdani won the New York mayoral election on a promise to make the city more affordable, with expanded social programmes funded in part by raising taxes on the city's wealthiest residents and most profitable corporations.
Nearly a year since his upset victory, he has secured one major piece of that agenda: a surcharge on high-end second homes. He also continues to push for higher corporate and income taxes.
The proposals have intensified criticism of Mamdani, a......

Scary deals? What makes Hong Kong shun death-linked homes while France embraces the risk (SCMP)
|
|
|
Even as Hong Kong remains the world's least affordable housing market, many buyers still shun heavily discounted homes linked to an “unnatural death”, such as murder or suicide, according to property agents.
Prices for such properties could fall by as much as 50 per cent, while rents were typically about 20 per cent below market rates, they added.
