CSRC Creates Special Work Team for Planned Shenzhen Stock Connect

(Beijing) – China's securities regulator has created a special task group to guide and coordinate policymaking and technical operating issues for the long planned Shenzhen-Hong Kong stock connect that will more closely link the Chinese stock market with foreign investors, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

The Shenzhen stock connect will allow Chinese and foreign investors to buy and trade select securities on the other side's market within preset quotas, further opening up the mainland's stock market to foreign investment communities.
