Christopher Hui
Christopher Hui Ching-yu (Chinese: 許正宇; born 1976) is a Hong Kong politician and government official. Since 2020, he has been Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury.
Hui is the son of a veteran pro-Beijinger Hui Wang-chuen who is a leader of one of the major Fujian associations in Hong Kong. His sister, Florence Hui, was an Under Secretary for Home Affairs. His wife, Rita Chan, is a managing director at J.P. Morgan.
Hui received his bachelor's degree from the University of Oxford, and his Master of Business Administration from the INSEAD graduate business school. In 1999, he was admitted as an Administrative Officer in the Government and served in the Economic Development Branch, the Office of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in Beijing and the Home Affairs Department until 2003.
After he left the government in 2003, Hui worked in the banking sector and became a managing director at Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing for 12 years. He was also as a director of strategic development at New World Development, which was responsible for the development of the Greater Bay Area, the national plan to integrate Hong Kong with Macau, and other nine Guangdong cities, as a financial and technological powerhouse.
In 2008, he joined the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB), the largest pro-Beijing party in Hong Kong, and has served on its standing committee. In 2014, he was appointed by Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying as a council member of City University of Hong Kong. In 2019, Hui was appointed executive director of the Hong Kong Financial Services Development Council.
In April 2020, Chief Executive Carrie Lam appointed Hui Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, one of the principal officials of the Hong Kong government, even as he remained a member of the DAB.
In December 2023, Hui defended Hong Kong's financial market, after data showed IPO proceeds at a 20 year low, and with mainland Chinese citizens criticizing the low performance and comparing Hong Kong Exchange Square to a historical relic tourist site.
Hui proposed a “3-Step” Strategy to further enhance Hong Kong's status as the leading private equity hub. As the first step, a new Limited Partnership Fund regime was introduced for investment funds to be registered in Hong Kong in the form of limited partnerships. In a year's time, over 300 funds have registered under the regime.
