HKMA and AMCM launch direct linkage for cross-border bond investment

This initiative aims to promote the development of bond markets in both regions.

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and the Monetary Authority of Macao (AMCM) officially launched a direct linkage between Hong Kong's Central Moneymarkets Unit (CMU) and Macao's Central Securities Depository (CSD).

This initiative aims to promote the development of bond markets in both regions by facilitating seamless cross-border investment and financing.

Investors from Hong Kong and Macao can now participate in each other’s bond markets with greater ease and efficiency.

Looking ahead, both HKMA and AMCM plan to explore further connectivity opportunities with Mainland China and international financial markets to provide additional investment avenues and strengthen financial cooperation between the two regions.
