Hong Kong’s IPO Comeback
Chinese IPOs in America have collapsed 93% since 2021, raising just $875 million this year vs. $13 billion at the peak. Meanwhile, Hong Kong is reaping the rewards — Chinese listings there surged 164% to $18.4 billion across 56 deals.

Since then, companies in “strategic industries” face a regulatory maze for U.S. approval. The Nasdaq has raised the bar with a $25 million minimum for Chinese IPOs, while Hong Kong introduced its “Technology Enterprises Channel” to fast-track tech listings. source : cnbc
