From the start of this year through August 12, southbound funds have witnessed a cumulative net inflow exceeding HK$910 billion, establishing a new record high. Out of the 145 trading days, southbound funds registered a net inflow on 123 days, representing over 80% of the total trading days. Despite recent volatility in the Hong Kong stock market, institutions maintain that this has not altered the rationale for its medium-term allocation, and they anticipate the Hong Kong stock market to continue attracting southbound fund inflows.
