Today,
many investors and entrepreneurs are choosing to set up their businesses
overseas – especially in jurisdictions like Hong Kong. The rationale behind
this trend is to primarily facilitate entry into an international market and to
benefit from tax friendly jurisdictions. Hong Kong is considered one of the
best cities to establish and run a business, as it scores high on factors that
matter to businesses.
World’s freest economy
Hong
Kong is one of the world’s most dynamic economies driven by the principles of
free enterprise, free trade and free markets open to all. The robust economy
over the past two decades has contributed to the GDP growth at an average
annual rate of 5% in real terms. There are no restrictions on inward and
outward investments, no foreign exchange controls and no foreign ownership
restrictions. Factors such as a sound banking system, almost no public debt, a
strong legal system, sizable foreign exchange reserves and a strict
anti-corruption regimen serve to strengthen Hong Kong’s position as a business
friendly region.
Liberal Immigration Policy
Hong
Kong follows a liberal immigration policy. Nationals of about 170 countries and
territories are allowed visa-free visits to Hong Kong for periods ranging from
7 to 180 days. Short-term visitors may conduct business negotiations and sign
contracts by entering Hong Kong on a visitor visa or entry permit. The
government has introduced appropriate work visa provisions, anticipating the
needs of business entrepreneurs who may wish to relocate to Hong Kong to run
their business or who may want to hire foreign professionals to work in their
company. There are various policies and schemes for the employment of foreign
professionals, employment of Mainland talents and professionals, those wishing
to enter for investment etc. Dependent visas are issued and allow the holder to
undertake almost any type of lawful employment in Hong Kong.
Sound Legal Environment
Noted
for its transparency, law and order is central to Hong Kong’s success. All are
considered equal before the law. Hong Kong’s legal system is separate from
Mainland China’s, and English common law prevails. With the establishment of
the International Arbitration Centre in 1985, Hong Kong has become a key center
for arbitration in Asia and arbitration is now a popular method of dispute
resolution in Hong Kong. The law is committed to the protection of Intellectual
Property Rights (IPR) and enforces stringent regulations for patents,
copyrights, trademarks and registered designs.
Robust Infrastructure
Hong
Kong has taken endless measures to continuously upgrade its infrastructure in
order to meet the growing demands of businesses. It is said to have one of the
Best Airports and Busiest Ports in the world. Transportation services are
efficient and cheap connecting all major centers. Hong Kong is also the
preferred Exhibition and Convention Centre for most businesses in the region.
The Hong Kong Exhibition and Convention Centre have received several awards and
accolades.
