Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX) has extended the tenure of CEO Bonnie Chan Yiting for an additional three years, extending her term from March 1, 2027, to February 28, 2030. Chan, the first woman to hold the position of CEO at the city's exchange operator, has been leading HKEX Group with vision, purpose, and distinction, according to HKEX chairman Carlson Tong.
The move comes as HKEX strives to leverage mainland China's tech boom and maintain its status as one of the world's leading fundraising destinations, thus consolidating Hong Kong's role as an international financial centre. Chan's leadership has contributed to HKEX's growth, with the firm becoming the world's top initial public offering (IPO) venue in 2025, hosting 114 companies that raised US$37.22 billion.
The longest-serving CEO was Charles Li Xiaojia, who held the position for 11 years from 2010 to 2021.
