Hong Kong trading firms can now connect directly to the LSE.

Trading firms in Hong Kong will now be able to connect directly to the LSE and will also have access to the London Stock Exchange Derivatives Market.

The announcement is another step the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) has made in strengthening ties in the region. Since January 2014, seven Chinese companies have been admitted to the LSE, 10 new renminbi (RMB) bonds have been issued in London and six new RQRII exchange-traded funds (ETF) have been listed on the market.

LSEG has also signed four memoranda of understanding (MoU) with firms in the area: Agriculture Bank of China, Bank of China, China Construction Bank and Haitong Securities.
