“…However, if Hong Kong's role vis-à-vis Mainland China is becoming less relevant, it would be difficult to argue that the future of Hong Kong is bright. After the pro-democratic Occupy Central with Love and Peace civil disobedience campaign in 2014, Scobell and Gong (2016) raised the important issue of 'whither Hong Kong? ', and concluded that the mostly likely scenario was the status quo ante, that is, freedom without democracy.…”

This article presents an analysis of the relationship between Hong Kong and Mainland China through a number of different lenses, including past economic relations in financing, trade, capital flow, and renminbi (the Chinese currency) internationalisation, future economic relations against the

“…This service-oriented economy is also remarked as the fourth greatest foreign exchange market in the world and the biggest offshore RMB (Renminbi, the Chinese currency) clearing centre (BIS, 2018). Furthermore, Hong Kong has remarkably weathered several critical shocks since the 2000s such as global financial crisis (GFC), stock market crashes, Chinese market turmoil, typhoons, chaos and the transfer of sovereignty from London to Beijing (Scobell and Gong, 2017).…”

Purpose Growth enterprise market (GEM) in Hong Kong is acknowledged as one of the world’s most successful examples of small and medium enterprise (SME) stock market. The purpose of this paper is to examine the evolving efficiency and dual long memory in the GEM. This paper also explores the joint impacts of thin trading, structural breaks and inflation on the dual long memory. Design/methodology/approach State-space GARCH-M model, Kalman filter estimation, factor-adjustment techniques and fractionally integrated models: ARFIMA–FIGARCH, ARFIMA–FIAPARCH and ARFIMA–HYGARCH are adopted for the empirical analysis. Findings The results indicate that the GEM is still weak-form inefficient but shows a tendency towards efficiency over time except during the global financial crisis. There also exists a stationary long-memory property in the market return and volatility; however, these long-memory properties weaken in magnitude and/or statistical significance when the joint impacts of the three aforementioned factors were taken into account. Research limitations/implications A forecasts of the hedging model that capture dual long memory could provide investors further insights into risk management of investments in the GEM. Practical implications The findings of this study are relevant to market authorities in improving the GEM market efficiency and investors in modelling hedging strategies for the GEM. Originality/value This study is the first to investigate the evolving efficiency and dual long memory in an SME stock market, and the joint impacts of thin trading, structural breaks and inflation on the dual long memory.

“…Aside from some historical studies, research on Hong Kong–China relations usually focuses on either political, economic, or cultural relations. In this scholarship, political relations between post-handover Hong Kong and China are most often interpreted as hegemonic and conflictual (e.g., Ho and Tran, 2019; Scobell and Gong, 2016). This interpretation is not problematic given the obviously enormous political power differential between Hong Kong and Beijing.…”

This is a cultural sociological study of the mainland Chinese reception of the films of Stephen Chow, the popular Hong Kong actor and director. This study’s theoretical objective is to rethink the cultural relations between post-handover Hong Kong and China. Its empirical analysis challenges five major frameworks of studying post-handover Hong Kong culture that interpret Hong Kong–China cultural relations as hegemonic and conflictual. The study’s first substantive section establishes that the Chinese reception of Chow’s films has been very positive and well participated. The second and third sections illustrate that the Chinese scholarly reception of Chow’s films and the Chinese popular audience reception of them stress their counter-hegemonic characteristics. This study’s data include the hundreds of Chinese-language publications on Chow, online sources, and interviews with twenty-four informants.
