Futu Holdings - Hong Kong's tech-driven broker looks towards another decade of success

Widely celebrated as Asia’s world city,” Hong Kong is one of the most attractive business and investment destinations in the world. The city houses the world’s leading international financial hub, and its vibrant capital market is one of the most favourable investment markets worldwide, according to a recent Ipsos report. Since the launch of China Connect in 2014, the city has seen a massive increase in demand for brokerage services and a boost to trading activities on its securities market. Hong Kong also boasts the largest hedge fund centre in Asia, with HK$35 trillion assets under management. As Hong Kong moves away from traditional brokers to becoming a cashless society, the growing popularity of digital banking and online trading platforms is set to revolutionise the market.

Hong Kong A global financial hub of the past, present and future

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the British handover of Hong Kong to China, during which time the financial and political ties between Hong Kong and Mainland China have grown steadily, while the city has continued to draw in international talent and serve as a global financial hub.

Delectable Local Desserts

Desserts can be a sweet, lasting memory of an extraordinary travel experience. When the hosts of Newsweek’s Fast Women podcast travel, we don’t leave finding the best pastries in town to chance. Instead, we ask the locals which restaurant, shop or stand makes the very best; the hotel concierge is often a great resource, too. From coffee cake at Olsen’s Danish Village Bakery in California to milkshakes at Diesel Créme in South Africa or Sacher Torte at the Café Sacher in Austria, the sweet treats on this list are some of our favorites around the globe—and well worth a trip to discover.
