Hong Kong has one of the world's most active and liquid securities markets. There is neither control over capital movement nor capital gains or dividend income tax. Trading services of the securities industry are provided by investment banks, commercial banks, finance companies and securities brokerage companies. Investment banks are the principal underwriters for initial public offerings (IPO). Hong Kong's highly liberal and liquid securities market has attracted many international investment banks and securities houses to build their presence here, eyeing the IPO and securities businesses. In the secondary market, local retail customers are served mainly by local brokers and banks, whereas institutional buyers are principally served by the international brokers and investment banks. Being the most liquid overseas market for mainland enterprises, Hong Kong is an important center for raising capital for companies on the Chinese mainland.

Red chips stocks are the stocks of mainland China companies incorporated outside mainland China and listed in Hong Kong. These businesses are based in mainland China and controlled, either directly or indirectly, by the central, provincial or municipal governments of the People's Republic of China but listed in Hong Kong to allow overseas investment in the companies.
The term was coined by Hong Kong economist Alex Tang in 1992 and is a play on term blue chip stocks with the word "red" representing the People's Republic of China and the Chinese Communist Party.
