The School of Economics and Management has signed an agreement with HKEX Group (Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited) to launch the public welfare project which will offer high quality courses focusing on major trends of international capital market。

The project which is sponsored by the University Alumni enterprise Prudence Investment Management (Hong Kong) Limited, aims to provide a platform to popularize the financial knowledge to domestic beginners and also an opportunity for professionals to stimulate new ideas. All the courses are open to the public for free.

The opening ceremony was held on 14th June at the School of economics and management which attracted over 150 audiences. The school dean Song Min gave the welcome speech on the ceremony. "Hong Kong is by far the first choice for domestic businesses who want to access the global markets. The internationalization of Hong Kong is not only reflected by the diversity of the listed companies, but also the globalization of the investors." said Song. He encouraged our MBA/EMBA alumni to develop their own businesses by making use of the advantages of Hong Kong.

After the welcome speech, four experts from HKEX Group had given lectures on International capital market operation, differences of asset classes, RMB exchange rate risk management and international commodity and derivatives markets which lasted through out the day.

This is the first international Institution-Enterprise Cooperation in our school and has achieved successful results. The school plans to explore more opportunities in future to invite financial experts to share with frontier industry knowledge and developments.
