Yue emphasized that these discussions will have profound implications for the global economy and international financial markets. He believes that the high-caliber insights shared by participants will significantly aid Hong Kong in addressing vital issues such as maintaining financial stability, strengthening the financial sector, and leveraging finance to support economic growth amid the current intricate external environment.
