HKEX is pleased to announce today the opening of its New York office, expanding the exchange group’s international footprint and supporting its growing global client base.
Headed by Roger McAvoy, Managing Director and Head of Business Development, North America, the New York office will provide an on-the-ground dedicated team for HKEX’s North American customers. The new office will promote HKEX’s liquid primary and secondary cash markets, its exclusive connectivity with China’s markets and its diverse suite of derivatives, which together constitute Asia Pacific’s most comprehensive financial market ecosystem.
Hong Kong is Asia Pacific’s leading international trading, investment and risk management centre, and having a physical presence in New York, the financial capital of North America and one of the great international cities of the world, will support HKEX’s ongoing commitment to global connectivity.
In his new role, Mr McAvoy will continue to report to HKEX Co-Head of Sales and Marketing, Kevin Rideout.
Nicolas Aguzin
HKEX Chief Executive Officer
At HKEX, we are fully focused on supporting the growth ambitions of our customers around the globe, and I am therefore today delighted to announce the opening of our New York office. We look forward to deepening our relationships with investors, companies and risk managers across the region, connecting capital with opportunities and East with West. I am confident the office will play a vital role as we continue to build the vibrancy and attractiveness of our markets and our unique China Connect programmes.
I am also delighted Roger will be leading our engagement in North America, having already done exemplary work in building our franchise in Southeast Asia over the past five years as head of our Singapore office. I have every confidence that he, together with the broader HKEX team, will be successful in supporting our global customers and driving new investors and companies to Hong Kong, the region’s premier international financial centre.
Operating as HKEX (U.S.) LLC, the New York office will build out its team over the coming months, making it easier for HKEX to connect with investors, market participants and their intermediaries during their own working day and enabling the group to build stronger relationships with its regional clients. The new New York office will complement HKEX’s existing international reach from its offices in Shanghai, Beijing, and Singapore.
HKEX is also continuing with its plans to open a European office. Further details will be announced in due course.
