As Hong Kong rejoined China in 1 st July 1997, this study would imply a view on economy development tendency particularly financial market trends after the twelve years. The result obtained from the tests indicates that there is no long-run stable relationship between the three stock markets, but short-run causality exists.

Introduction As a result of economic globalization, more and more investors, portfolio managers, and policy makers concern more on long-run and short-run relationships between financial markets. The People’s Republic of China is one of the most economic powerful countries, which achieves rapid economic growth, and its finance market keeps a high speed of development and globalization (Malkiel et al., 2008). After Hong Kong rejoining China in 1997, the connection between China mainland and Hong Kong financial markets is tighter day after day. Analyzing the stock markets’ cointegration and causality would be helpful in carrying forward mainland China’s capital market internalized stably and assisting the enterprises and investors being 1 Corresponding author: Locked Bag No.

    Journal of Risk and Financial Management Article Stock Market Volatility and Trading Volume: A Special Case in Hong Kong With Stock Connect Turnover Brian Sing Fan Chan, Andy Cheuk Hin Cheng and Alfred Ka Chun Ma ∗ CASH Algo Finance Group Limited, Hong Kong, China; [email protected] (B.S.F.C.); [email protected] (A.C.H.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +852-2287-8168 Received: 5 September 2018; Accepted: 25 October 2018; Published: 31 October 2018 Abstract: The cross-boundary Shanghai-Hong Kong and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect provides a special data set to study the dynamic relationships among volatility, trading volume and turnover among three stock markets, namely Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong. We employ the Granger Causality test with the vector autoregressive model (VAR) to examine whether Stock Connect turnover contributes to future realized volatility and market volume of these three markets. Our results support the evidence of causality from Stock Connect turnover to market volatility and trading volume. The finding of this causality is consistent with the implication of the sequential information arrival model in the literature. Keywords: Volatility-Volume; realized volatility; Stock Connect 1. Introduction The Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited introduced the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect (SH-HK Stock Connect) on 17 November 2014, and the Shenzheng-Hong Kong Stock Connect (SZ-HK Stock Connect) on 5 December 2016. Stock Connect established investment channels between Mainland China and Hong Kong stock markets for Mainland China, Hong Kong, and overseas investors through mutual order routing connectivity (HKEX 2018).

  • China's Banking Sector and the Attractiveness of Dim Sum Bond
    China's banking sector and the attractiveness of Dim Sum Bond Antonello Avino in collaboration with Fjorda Vacchetti and Ludovico Gerli March 2016 Abstract China's banking system has tremendously grown in recent years. `The Big Four' keep dominating the Chinese banking system as well as they are playing an important role all over the world, mentioning in the first four positions of the largest banks ranking. In spite of its expansion, the banking sector is still suffering from serious structural and administrative issues. In order to deeply figure them out, we are going to perform a meticulous analysis of the banking sector, specifying what is the financial system adopted by China, what kinds of banks operate along with the first four banks and how the regulatory system has changed over time. Also, we are going to discuss the `parallel' banking, well-known as `shadow banking', which slowed down the growth of the banking system. Even though financial consequences of the global crisis on china have been extremely smalls, it still possible to focus our attention on changes and development of Chinese structure. This country suffered few losses in the short run whereas many projects (like the stimulus plan on 2008), reorganizations and reforms were planned in order to avoid contrary effects in the long run, both for real and financial economy. Finally, we will give a brief overview of the Dim Sum bond market aimed to internationalize the renminbi currency outside Mainland China and to lower the cost of capital. I Market-oriented or bank-oriented? Economic history and empirical economic analysis showed that the corporate finance was influenced by two different models of government in the financial market: the so-called market-oriented system, and the bank-oriented system or oriented intermediation.
