On July 2, the unveiling ceremony of Shandong Branch of Shandong Gangxin Futures Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Gangxin Futures") was held in Jinan, marking a key step in the expansion of Hong Kong Seng Futures' national business. Huo Gaoyuan, Party Secretary and Chairman of Shandong Port Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shandong Port"), and Li Fengli, Deputy Party Secretary, Director and General Manager, attended the event.
Hongxin Futures officially opened on July 24, 2021. It is the first futures company approved by the China Securities Regulatory Commission for the first time to "open the gate" after more than 20 years. It is also the only legal futures institution in Qingdao. It is currently the only legal person futures institution in Qingdao Port. It is jointly invested by Qingdao Guoxin Financial Holdings Co., Ltd. and Qingdao SHKJK Investment Development Group Co., Ltd. (formerly Qingdao SHK Development Group Co., Ltd.), which is of great significance to building a complete futures and spot linkage service system, helping Shandong Port to build an internationally leading financial and trade port, and accelerating the construction of a world-class marine port.
The establishment of the Shandong Branch of Hong Kong Xin Futures in Jinan is a special concern for Shandong Port’s important position as a provincial capital city and its future development. It is an important step in the cross-regional development of Shandong Port’s financial sector and is of great significance to the comprehensive launch of the national service deployment process. In the future, the Shandong Branch of Hong Kong Credit Futures will form regional complementarity with Qingdao headquarters, relying on regional resources, optimize strategic layout, and comprehensively enhance the company's competitive strength.
