On the afternoon of November 17th, 2020, Dialogues of Entrepreneurs from Hengqin-Macau Finance Industry of the 3rd Shizimen Finance Week were held in Zhuhai International Convention and Exhibition Center. Such an event featured the presence of more than 20 financial experts and entrepreneurs, including Guopei ZHAO, President of Hengqin Financial Investment Group Co., Ltd., Chunyan CAI, Vice Governor of Bank of China Macau Branch; Weicheng KONG, General Manager of GF Securities Asset Management Co., Ltd., Xiaoqin LIN, Executive Director of the Board of Directors of Centurium Capital, Chaojie LIANG, Executive Director of Shenzhen Advanced Supply Chain and Finance Research Institute, Dali ZHANG, Deputy General Manager of China Life Insurance (Group) Company Macau Branch; Yuanhua CONG, Founding Partner of JCP Capital Management Ltd., Yan ZHANG, CEO of MingMed Biotech Co., Ltd., and Feng BAI, Vice President of BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd.. Their discussions centered around 4 major topics, namely “With New Landscape and New Opportunities, Pushing forward the Development of Guangdong-Macau’s Financial Integration” “Opportunities, Challenges and the Future of Macau’s Development of Cross-border Equity Investment (QDIE, QFLP)” “Hengqin-Macau Comprehensive Healthcare Industry’s Development: Investment Opportunities, Challenges and Approaches” and “The Era of Digital Economy—New Ecosystems of the Industrial Shain, Supply Chain and Finance”.

Experts at the meeting hold the view that the financial industry is an indispensable part of the producer services sector, and financial innovations must be based on the real economy and customers’ needs. In this process, government should encourage financial institutions to be pioneers in experiments and innovation. Hengqin should leverage the advantages brought about by its location, work harder on its innovation under the framework of the nation’s relevant policies, and have a clearer idea of itself or its advantageous industries, in a bid to attract more high-calibre enterprises to settle in Hengqin. At the same time, it is necessary to make full use of modern financial institutions in Macau to provide high-quality services to fund companies in Hengqin, and do a good job in the integrated development of financial institutions and industries.
