Hong Kong Investment Company | Chen Jiaqi: Internal return rate reaches double digits, hopes to play a better role in attracting investment

The CEO of the Hong Kong Investment Company, Chen Jiaqi, attended a sub-forum of the Boao Forum for Asia in Hainan and stated that the Hong Kong Investment Company will be fully operational in 2024, with an internal rate of return reaching double digits to date, generating over 8 dollars of follow-on capital for every 1 dollar invested, much of which comes from overseas funds. She hopes that in the future, the Hong Kong Investment Company can play an even better role in attracting investment.

Chen Jiaqi pointed out that the Hong Kong Investment Company will assist invested enterprises in connecting with different capital, customers, and application scenarios. She mentioned that among the investment projects, one company went public on the Hong Kong stock market at the end of last year, and the Hong Kong Investment Company helped the enterprise connect with many overseas customers. Currently, its product services have been sold to over 90 regions worldwide. At the same time, investment projects undergo due diligence by the Hong Kong Investment Company, and other funds also review the projects, forming mutual endorsement.

She also mentioned that when investing in forward-looking cutting-edge technology sectors, many opportunities lie in mainland China and Hong Kong. Currently, over 50% of the funds from the Hong Kong Investment Company are invested in mainland projects, 30% in Hong Kong projects, and 20% in overseas projects.

After the meeting, Chen Jiaqi revealed that she recently visited Shanghai and Hainan, focusing on local high-growth, high-impact innovative enterprises in artificial intelligence, life sciences, and green energy.
