Deloitte, one of the big four accounting firms, said that with leading mainland companies speeding up their listing in Hong Kong, the number of new shares in Hong Kong will reach 80, and the amount raised will rise to HK$200 billion, a significant increase from the HK$130 billion to HK$150 billion forecast in early April. In contrast, another accountancy firm, EY, predicts that Hong Kong will raise HK$160 billion throughout the year, and Deloitte's estimate is clearly more optimistic. Deloitte pointed out that Hong Kong currently has more than 170 listing applications under review. Of these, more than 5 companies each plan to raise at least 1 billion US dollars, and it is expected that 25 new A+H shares may be recorded during the year. Deloitte said that most of the other listed projects will come from the technology, media and telecommunications, and consumer industries. Deloitte said that as the pace of listing of leading mainland companies in Hong Kong has accelerated, along with simplified application procedures for A-share companies, improved valuation, and increased market liquidity and capital carrying capacity, they have all injected momentum into the Hong Kong IPO market.
