“Fintech Forum – Reshaping the Digital Economy with Web 3 and Virtual Assets” hosted by Cyberport was held on Day 2 of the Digital Economy Summit. Rosana, Executive Director of Yau Lee Group, was invited to attend. The Forum started with the welcome remarks given by Mr. Simon Chan, Chairman of Cyberport. Financial Secretary Mr. Paul Chan has then delivered the opening remarks to underline that green finance and green bond are keys for the development of digital economy. Afterwards, various experts including Ms. Ying Zhang, Deputy Director of Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization, Ms. Clara Chan, Executive Director (Monetary Management) of Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Dr. Rocky Cheng, Chief Information Officer of Bank of China (Hong Kong), etc. have shared their insights on digital economy.

 

Rosana was glad to join such a rich and inspiring forum which made her to have a deep thinking of the FinTech. She is very supportive of Hong Kong’s efforts to develop digital economy. Meanwhile, she agrees that a highly interconnected digital financial infrastructure is an indispensable cornerstone, where e-HKD, e-Payment and Tokenised Green Bonds are especially important. Yau Lee Group will fully cooperate with all relevant measures. In addition, Rosana also strongly agrees that “Technology is neutral” since what determines its effects is mainly how people use it.

 

Therefore, Rosana will actively grasp the opportunities arising from digital economy, including providing value-added services for China to export data overseas, gathering global resources for development as well as establishing an international virtual asset centre. All these can definitely leverage the core value brought by Hong Kong as a world-leading financial centre and further deepen the development of smart city in Hong Kong.
