中新社香港10月11日电 题:全球最自由经济体评选“三连冠” 香港独特竞争力再获国际认可

中新社记者 香卢平

近日,加拿大智库菲沙研究所(Fraser Institute)发布《世界经济自由度2026年度报告》,香港继续获评为全球最自由经济体。这是香港连续第三年被评为全球最自由经济体,印证香港维持自由港地位、实行零关税和简单低税制具有连续性和稳定性,在“一国两制”下的独特竞争力再获国际社会认可。

全球经济不确定性下香港吸引力凸显

在“经济自由度”的五项核心评估维度中,香港在“国际贸易自由”方面以9.66分位列全球第一、“货币政策与市场稳定”以9.5分处于第八。在贸易保护主义升温的背景下,不少经济体收紧跨境贸易政策,而香港保持开放、高效和公平的营商环境,对海内外投资者和企业家产生吸引力。

2025年,香港有逾1.1万家母公司在海外及中国内地的驻港公司,同比增长11%,创历史新高;香港特区政府于2022年成立的引进重点企业办公室至今已引进逾120家重点企业,其中不乏市值或估值逾千亿港元、掌握前沿技术的全球行业龙头;2026年前8个月,特区政府投资推广署亦协助约520家内地和海外企业在港开设或扩展业务。上述数据均反映出海内外投资者对香港营商和投资环境的肯定。

开放与监管配合共筑良好营商环境

五项核心评估维度中,香港在“监管”方面以8.61分排名全球第二。该项指数包括信贷市场监管、劳动力市场监管、商业监管和竞争自由等四个领域,衡量限制市场准入并干预自愿交换自由的监管措施。

在香港,公司注册和变更流程标准化、透明化,前置审批少,减少行政对企业经营的介入,亦不设增值税、营业税和资本利得税,合规成本低;香港金融市场开放,监管机构聚焦系统性风险防控,不干预商业决策,资金可跨境自由流动;由香港竞争事务委员会独立执法落实《竞争条例》,对所有经营者一视同仁。开放与监管相互配合,形成了香港良好的营商环境。

巩固优势拓展更大发展空间

报告亦为香港提升“法律及产权保障”等方面治理能力提供参照。在保持优势的基础上,香港继续完善产权保护、公共治理等配套机制,深化国际法律及解决争议服务中心、区域知识产权贸易中心建设,加快创科发展、改善民生,让更多企业和人才来港扎根,将长久巩固提升香港国际金融、贸易中心地位。

香港第一个五年规划于今年9月公布,主动对接国家“十五五”规划,明确坚持奉行自由开放的经济体系,保障资金、货物、人员、资讯自由流动,加快北部都会区建设等。随着规划蓝图逐步落地,香港将为海内外企业、投资者和人才带来更多发展机遇。(完)

Corporate profits offset the impact of high interest rates, and Taiwan stocks’ fourth-quarter rally begins

Taiwan stocks have risen strongly recently, approaching the 50,000-point mark, mainly due to lower-than-expected U.S. non-farm employment data, dovish comments from Federal Reserve officials, lowering expectations for another FOMC interest rate hike at the end of October, coupled with the strong growth momentum of the AI ​​industry and the early return of funds to risky assets. The article pointed out that although the short-term may be volatile, the mid- to long-term trend is still positive, and it is recommended that investors deploy AI computing power and semiconductor supply chain-related groups in batches.

The U.S. economy shows resilience. AI’s long-term focus is on the dual main lines of “power” and “information security”

U.S. retail sales increased by 1.2% monthly in August, showing solid consumption momentum; the job market cooled down in September after a strong rebound in August, with only 29,000 new jobs added, and the unemployment rate rose to 4.2%. Driven by rising gasoline prices, CPI increased by 0.4% in August. AI chip power consumption is rising rapidly, and the power consumption of a single cabinet may exceed 1 million watts, driving demand for liquid cooling. Supervision upgrades have promoted computing power protection, and data center power supply has become a new test. Taiwan stocks focus on the three main lines of hardware, software and non-AI, and it is recommended to keep cash and wait for a pullback.

U.S. non-farm payrolls cooled sharply in September, and expectations for the Fed to suspend interest rate hikes in October surged

The number of non-farm payrolls in the United States increased by only 29,000 in September, far lower than expected, and the unemployment rate edged up to 4.2%, indicating a cooling of the labor market. This data has reduced market expectations for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates in October, but inflation is still above the target, so suspense about raising interest rates before the end of the year still exists. Market focus has turned to follow-up inflation data to determine the direction of policy.

Taiwan stocks have risen by 70.26% this year. Investment: May remain volatile in October

Investment institutions pointed out that Taiwan's stock market has increased by 70.26% this year, ranking fourth in the world and first in Asia. Although in the short term due to the accumulation of chips and the weakening willingness to chase prices, it is expected that the trend of AI will remain volatile from October to November. However, the trend of AI has not changed. There is no need to be pessimistic in the long term. Individual stocks are expected to perform better than the market. It is recommended to pay attention to investment opportunities such as AI supply chains and high-dividend groups.
