Move will also pave way for mainland Chinese investors to use the currency to trade Hong Kong-listed stocks.<\/b>
\nHong Kong will increase renminbi usage by issuing more yuan bonds and settling some government expenditures, paving the way for mainland Chinese investors to use the currency to trade Hong Kong-listed stocks, according to a minister.
Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Christopher Hui Ching-yu said on Thursday the move would address the question of how the city could use the yuan it received from various channels.
Hui was expanding on Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu\u2019s policy address on Wednesday, which highlighted bolstering Hong Kong\u2019s role as a renminbi hub.
The city is the world\u2019s largest offshore yuan business hub.
Lee said Hong Kong would issue more yuan bonds and consider using the currency for government expenditures.
On Thursday, Hui said the new measures would pave the way for the inclusion of a yuan trading counter under the Stock Connect\u2019s southbound trading scheme for Hong Kong stocks.
\u201cOur exchanges with mainland China are deepening, and there are many opportunities or pilot programmes where we can use yuan for payment,\u201d Hui said.<\/p>\n
