Financial firms in Hong Kong managed a record HK$42.2 trillion in assets last year, up 20 per cent from 2024, the Securities and Futures Commission reported.
Net fund inflows exceeded HK$2 trillion in 2025, a 193 per cent increase from the prior year. The rise was supported by a tech-led stock rally and a 30 per cent increase in capital allocated to the mainland.
The Securities and Futures Commission attributed the gains to investor confidence, market innovation and Hong Kong’s talent pool. It said these factors strengthened the city’s resilience against global headwinds.
“Looking ahead, the SFC remains committed to continued regulatory enhancements to foster Hong Kong’s competitiveness as a premier international financial centre and a leading offshore renminbi hub,” said Elisa Ng, the SFC’s executive director of investment products.
