  • Exploring Coordinative Mechanisms for Environmental Governance in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area: an Ecology of Games Framework
    sustainability Article Exploring Coordinative Mechanisms for Environmental Governance in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area: An Ecology of Games Framework Wenjie Zhou and Rui Mu * Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian 116024, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-0411-8470-7479 Received: 15 May 2019; Accepted: 30 May 2019; Published: 3 June 2019 Abstract: To solve regional environmental problems, there is a trend of establishing urban agglomerations and formulating cooperative policy institutions in China. The extant studies on policy institutions largely focus on the coordinative mechanisms of multiple actors within one single institution. Only a few studies have tried to understand how different policy institutions are interlinked and mutually affected to influence actors’ decisions and problem resolutions. This article applies a network-based analytical approach and adopts the Ecology of Games Framework to explore how regional environmental governance is coordinated in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. It was found that coordinative mechanisms in regional environmental governance can happen around three elements: policy institutions, policy actors, and policy issues. Policy institutions tend to serve as an umbrella for many diverse and interdependent activities and actors within individual institutions. Additionally, positive externalities emerging between different policy institutions perform as coordinators across institutions. For actors, state-level actors usually play as facilitators of policy institutions while they are not active in participating in policy games in later phases; it is regional actors, particularly from Guangdong, that are active in the operation of policy institutions. For policy issues, they emerge because they are often tied with each other, and some of them play as the common ground for seemly separating policy institutions.

  • Hong Kong in the Global Economy: How the Special Administrative Region Rises to the Challenges Posed by China
    Asia Programme Paper: ASP PP 2010/05 Programme Paper Hong Kong in the Global Economy: How the Special Administrative Region Rises to the Challenges Posed by China Kerry Brown Senior Research Fellow, Asia Programme, Chatham House Sophie Steel Research Assistant October 2010 The views expressed in this document are the sole responsibility of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the view of Chatham House, its staff, associates or Council. Chatham House is independent and owes no allegiance to any government or to any political body. It does not take institutional positions on policy issues. This document is issued on the understanding that if any extract is used, the authors and Chatham House should be credited, preferably with the date of the publication. Programme Paper: Hong Kong in the Global Economy SUMMARY • The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) has quickly bounced back from the effects of the global economic recession in 2008/09. Economic indicators for the first half of 2010 are strong and attention is turning to the medium- to long-term outlook and Hong Kong’s position in the region. • The SAR’s links with the Mainland economy are still special, though they are evolving and changing. While previously Hong Kong has been seen as the gateway into China, in the future it is also increasingly likely to be the gateway out of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). It now needs to focus on how it can best exploit this for its international positioning as others become interested in directly attracting PRC funds and investment.

  • Financial Services Industry News
    Apr-Jun 2019 FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY NEWS ASSET MANAGEMENT Mutual Recognition of Funds between the Netherlands and Hong Kong The Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) and the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM) have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding on Mutual Recognition of Funds (MoU) on 15 May 2019. The MoU will allow eligible Hong Kong Collective Investment Schemes (CIS) and Dutch Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (UCITS) to be distributed in each other’s market through a streamlined process. The MoU establishes a framework for exchange of information, regular dialogue as well as regulatory cooperation in relation to the cross- border offering of eligible Hong Kong CIS and Dutch UCITS. In addition, a streamlined approach to the authorisation of funds also applies where Dutch fund managers have been appointed as managers of other European Union UCITS that qualify under the SFC recognised jurisdiction schemes regime. “This new framework with the AFM will open up opportunities for the asset management industries in both markets and provide investors in Hong Kong and the Netherlands with more investment choices. We will continue to expand the mutual recognition of funds arrangements with other jurisdictions as part of the SFC’s commitment to develop Hong Kong into an international asset management centre,” said Mr Ashley Alder, the SFC’s Chief Executive Officer. “This newly established bridge between the Netherlands and Hong Kong constitutes an important stepping stone for the Dutch asset management industry seeking to develop activities in Asia. It leads to offering investors greater choice and diversification in their investments.
