Endorsement product: Zhenyin prepares for retirement
In fact, Metz switched from the high-intensity European battlefield to Miami International last year. As he prepares for what may be the last America’s Cup in his career, he also begins to prepare for his retirement career. He has already endorsed many products in China. However, following the turmoil of Miami International’s appearance in Hong Kong, Meisi became the target of Chinese patriots, and Meisi simply changed its focus to the Middle East market. In addition to endorsing Middle Eastern clothing this time, he also started to endorse the Saudi Arabian Tourism Bureau as early as last year.

In reality, they are making money from Islamic countries while lying down.
Hong Kong issues Islamic bonds for the third time
Metz focuses on the Middle East market, and Hong Kong has also rushed into the Islamic financial market in recent years. It proposed to issue Islamic bonds (Sukuk) as early as 2007, but Singapore “cut off” it and issued it in 2009. Hong Kong will not issue its first issue until 2014. , the UK also launched it in the same year, and Hong Kong also issued Islamic bonds once more in 2015 and 2017. Although various financial centers are gearing up to develop the Sukuk market, the vast majority of Sukuk bonds are currently issued in Malaysia and Saudi Arabia, with very few issuance cases outside the two places. Data from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) shows that Malaysian Islamic bonds issued in 2020 accounted for 32% of global issuance. Sukuk issuers prefer Islamic countries that “speak with one voice”. No wonder the Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Mr. Hui Ching-yu Encourage Hong Kong students to learn the languages of countries and regions along the Belt and Road Initiative.
Saudi Arabia is determined to develop into the financial center of the Middle East
After the epidemic, European and American funds have not returned to the Hong Kong investment market in a significant way. Hong Kong has once once more mentioned Islamic finance. As early as 2017, then Chief Executive Carrie Lam visited Saudi Arabia to seek the listing of “oil giant” Saudi Aramco in Hong Kong. At the beginning of last year, Li Jiachao also I have visited Saudi Arabia, but the goddess has the will, but the king has no dreams.

Saudi Aramco was listed on the Saudi Riyadh Stock Exchange in December 2019, raising a total of US$29.4 billion, making it the world’s largest IPO project in history.
As for CSOP Saudi Arabia ETF (2893), which tracks Saudi listed companies, it was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in November last year, becoming the first ETF of its kind in the Asia-Pacific region. Since its listing, the cumulative increase has reached 10%. However, the original intention of the ETF is to let Saudi Arabia companies draw funds from Hong Kong, which runs counter to Hong Kong’s hope of attracting funds from the Middle East. It is worth mentioning that in December last year, the China Securities Regulatory Commission received Huatai-PineBridge’s application to issue the CSOP Saudi Arabia QDII-ETF product. Once officially approved, mainland investors can also participate in this ETF market.
