The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), in collaboration with the ASEAN+3 Macroeconomic Research Office (AMRO), the Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI), and the South East Asian Central Banks Research and Training Centre (SEACEN Centre), hosted the fourth Financial Leadership Training Program (Program) in Hong Kong from August 25 to 28. Building upon the success of the event in the last three years, this year’s Program welcomed over 35 senior representatives from central banks, ministries of finance, and related government agencies in the ASEAN+3 and SEACEN member economies as well as international organisations.
The Program aims to enhance participants’ capabilities in safeguarding regional macroeconomic and financial stability. It provides a platform for attendees to engage in wide-ranging discussions on critical regional issues, strengthen leadership skills, and deepen professional expertise. During the Program, participants exchanged views with industry leaders, regulators and academia representatives on topical issues including AI, transition finance and financial digitalisation.
Deputy Chief Executive of the HKMA Mr Darryl Chan said, “The success of this year’s Program highlights the growing synergy among our regional partners and institutions. As the financial landscape evolves with rapid technological advancements and shifting economic dynamics, it is crucial that we equip senior public sector officials with the latest insights and strategic tools. By fostering deeper collaboration and knowledge sharing, we are not only strengthening individual institutional capacity but also building a more resilient and cohesive financial ecosystem across Asia.”
