Potential foreign investors interested in exploring business opportunities in Hong Kong and southern China's Pearl River Delta (PRD) will get value-added service from a "Business Concierge Service Scheme" launched recently by Invest Hong Kong.

A Government agency tasked with attracting inward investment, InvestHK has initiated the Scheme to help foreign investors particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to set up an office to oversee business operations in the PRD. Services under the Scheme are provided by service providers in the private sector and cover a whole range of business development and support services in the planning, organisation and implementation of potential investors to PRD via Hong Kong.

The associate director-general of investment promotion, Orphelia Tsang, said that foreign investors were increasingly interested in exploring business potential in PRD with opportunities brought on by the free trade pact Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement  (Cepa) and China's entry into the World Trade Organisation.

 

"We believe that the Business Concierge Service will provide potential investors with value added assistance in making more informed decisions about their investment in the Greater PRD region, that is, setting up an office in Hong Kong to oversee business operations in the PRD," said Ms Tsang.

 

She added that Invest Hong Kong would continue to give free advice and information to new and current foreign investors with the aim to attract and retain foreign investment to Hong Kong.
