Bond Connect helping investors

The Bond Connect program linking the mainland and Hong Kong bond markets has largely facilitated the outbound reach of Chinese investors and addressed the increasing investment appetite of foreign ones, demonstrating the nation's continued efforts to advance two-way opening-up in the financial sector, said experts.

The comments came on the seventh anniversary of the Bond Connect program on Wednesday.

Launched in July 2017, the program makes the Chinese mainland's interbank bond market accessible to overseas investors and international bond markets for Chinese mainland investors.
