3 Introduction Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area (The Greater Bay Area) is an initiative that will form an exciting new chapter in South China s history. The Greater Bay Area aims to bring together the two Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macao with nine cities in Guangdong: Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Foshan, Zhongshan, Dongguan, Huizhou, Jiangmen and Zhaoqing. Together, they will form a world-class city cluster that will play a leading role in global innovation, finance and trade. By combining the strengths of each city to facilitate trade and growth, the Greater Bay Area has the potential to be an economic powerhouse that will be comparable to or even surpass leading bay areas across the globe, such as Greater Tokyo Bay, San Francisco Bay Area and New York Metropolitan Area. As a major international financial centre, Hong Kong has an important role to play as the connector linking the Greater Bay Area cities to world markets. By leveraging its well-established capital markets and vast experience with international finance, Hong Kong can provide the other cities with support in areas such as project financing, bond issuance, investment, financial management and foreign exchange management. This represents a major opportunity for Hong Kong to boost its global status and to work with neighbouring cities to maximise their individual strengths. Hong Kong could play a pivotal role as an enabler in ensuring the success of this initiative. HSBC recognises the vast potential of the Greater Bay Area. With a significant presence across the Greater Bay Area cities, we are well positioned to help our clients seize the business opportunities available within the region and beyond. In doing so, we are able to facilitate the future growth provided by this initiative for both Hong Kong and neighbouring cities.

4 Background and vision The Framework Agreement on Deepening Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Cooperation in the Development of the Bay Area was signed on July 07, with the objective of promoting infrastructure connectivity, enhancing the level of market integration, cultivating new strengths in international cooperation and further developing the cluster into a global technology, finance and innovation hub. Key to realising this potential will be the construction of several transportation megaprojects. These projects include Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, Shenzhen-Zhongshan Bridge and Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link. When completed, these projects will facilitate the flow of people, goods and capital within the region.
