This development demonstrates HKEX's commitment to greater global market connectivity and to working with its international customer base around the world. The new office will be led by Roger McAvoy, Managing Director and Head of Business Development, North America. 

"The opening of our New York office is a great cause for celebration as we bring the Hong Kong and HKEX story to North America.

Supporting our international clients around the world by being on the ground and listening to their needs is critical so that we can deliver shared sustained success," said HKEX Chief Executive Officer, Nicolas Aguzin.

In addition, HKEX disclosed in March its plans to establish its first European office in London​.

"This new office will better connect two of the most important financial centres in the world, and, together with our recently announced London office, will further connect international capital with the exciting opportunities in Asia. This is part of HKEX’s ongoing commitment to further broaden international participation in our markets, strengthening Hong Kong's position as a superconnector between East and West," added Mr Aguzin.
