📈 Hong Kong | Stock Market Shutdowns During Typhoons to End in September
Starting September 23, Hong Kong will allow trading on its financial market during extreme weather, including when a black rainfall warning and a typhoon signal of eight or higher are in effect, aligning with other major financial centers like Shenzhen and Shanghai. Chief Executive John Lee announced this change, emphasizing the need to adhere to international norms to bolster HKEx’s competitiveness and Hong Kong’s status as a major commercial hub. Citing a public consultation, Lee noted that over 90% of banks and brokerages support this move. Authorities will provide assistance to small brokerages to facilitate the transition.
📊 Singapore | Singapore Maintains Growth Forecast Amid Resilient External Demand
Singapore has maintained its 2024 growth forecast at 1 to 3 percent, citing robust external demand. Q1 GDP growth stood at 2.7 percent, matching preliminary estimates and exceeding private-sector forecasts. The services sector led with a 3.9 percent increase, while manufacturing contracted by 1.8 percent. Construction grew by 4.1 percent. Despite a strong start, Q2 growth may slow to 1.5 percent due to tight financial conditions and global uncertainties. However, sectors like electronics, aviation, tourism, retail, and finance are expected to recover and contribute to growth later in the year.
📑 Taiwan | Criteria for Special Export Entertainment Fee: Export Facts and Foreign Currency Remittance
To encourage export sales, companies are eligible for a special entertainment expense deduction limited to 2% of their export sales, provided they meet two criteria: having documented export transactions and receiving remittances in foreign currency. For example, Company A reported export sales of NTD 7.39 million to customs in 2022 and claimed NTD 147,800 in special entertainment expenses, which is 2% of their export sales. However, the claim was disallowed upon audit because, despite having documented exports, all transactions were denominated and received in NTD, failing the foreign currency remittance.
💰 Vietnam | Over $15 Billion Invested in Vietnam for the First Half of 2024
In the first half of the year, Vietnam attracted nearly 15.2 billion USD in foreign investment, a 13.1% increase from the same period in 2023. The Foreign Investment Agency reported 1,538 new projects with a total capital of 9.54 billion USD, reflecting significant growth in project numbers and capital. Despite a decrease in the number of projects adjusting investment capital, the additional registered capital rose by 35% to over 3.95 billion USD. However, capital contribution and share purchase transactions by foreign investors dropped by 10.9% and 57.7% in value, respectively. Disbursed capital reached 10.84 billion USD, an 8.2% increase. The processing and manufacturing industry received the largest share of investment at 10.69 billion USD, followed by the real estate sector with 2.47 billion USD. Singapore was the top investor, contributing 5.58 billion USD, while Japan followed with 1.73 billion USD. Investment was spread across 48 provinces, with Bac Ninh, Ba Ria, Vung Tau, and Quang Ninh leading due to their strong infrastructure and proactive reforms.
