Abstract

This chapter is about the Shanghai and Hong Kong stock exchange connection mechanism pilot project which officially kick-started the opening of Shanghai–Hong Kong Stock Connect. Investors in markets both on mainland China and in Hong Kong considered it a major step in China’s continuous deepening and implementation of financial reform. The institutional arrangements, legal systems, and risk control of Shanghai–Hong Kong Stock Connect are analyzed in this chapter.

Jianjun Li has a PhD in Economics, and is a postdoctoral researcher in finance and a special researcher at the CASS Financial Law and Financial Regulation Research Base.
