About the Geography
Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China. It is the world’s freest and eighth largest economy. Hong Kong has no tariffs on imported goods and levies excise duty only on hydrocarbon oil, hard alcohol, tobacco, and methyl alcohol. It is the second largest recipient as well as supplier of FDI in the world. The country was ranked fifth easiest country to do business, by Doing Business.
Hong Kong acts as a bridgehead to China’s production, has an efficient banking system, favorable tax measures, excellent infrastructure, strong government, light legislations, well-educated skilled workers, and freedom of information. In 2003, Hong Kong SAR government launched CIES facilitated entry for foreign investors through investment into permissible assets, without the need to establish or join a business. Foreign companies can be set up freely, register their brands and the director of the company need not be a citizen or resident of Hong Kong. The only drawbacks are the high cost of living, elevated salaries, dependence on the financial sector, and exposure to global market risks.
With the presence of all major firms in the small region of Hong Kong, conducting business becomes very easy. Hong Kong is deemed to be the safest place to invest in the South-East Asia region.
