The long-awaited Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect is expected to officially launch in early November, HKEx Chief Executive Charles Li Xiaojia said on Wednesday.
The stock link, approved by the State Council in August, is the second direct equity market trading link between Hong Kong and the mainland after the Shanghai trading link debuted in November 2014.
Li said preparation of the new stock link is drawing to a close and related details will be announced within two days so that brokers can get ready. A comprehensive inspection will be arranged in a few weeks and "a lucky day" will be selected to open the stock connect in early November.
