Introduction to BOCOM International

BOCOM International Holdings Company Limited (“BOCOM International”, stock code: 3329.HK) is the only integrated platform for securities and securities-related financial services of BOCOM (a state-owned joint stock commercial bank) in Hong Kong. As one of the earliest licensed securities firms with a PRC background in Hong Kong, BOCOM International has weathered many economic and industry cycles as well as regulatory reforms since its establishment in 1998, and has grown to become one of the largest securities firms specialising in securities brokerage and margin financing, corporate finance and underwriting, investment and loans, asset management and advisory businesses in Hong Kong. BOCOM International successfully landed on the Main Board of the HKEX on 19 May 2017.

BOCOM International seized cross-border business opportunities from the stock connect programs and took full advantage of our background as a securities firm within a banking group to provide one-stop financial services for global customers. With building a comprehensive financial services institution with global influence and market competitiveness in the region being its long-term strategic development goal, BOCOM International is committed to creating greater value for its customers and Shareholders.

We believe that one of our core competitive strengths is our ability to offer comprehensive and integrated securities and financial products and services to our clients. Our principal business lines are:

 

• Securities Brokerage and Margin Financing. We execute trades on behalf of our clients in stocks, bonds, futures, options and other tradable securities and offer margin financing services to provide leverage to clients’ securities transactions.

• Corporate Finance and Underwriting. We provide one-stop corporate finance and underwriting solutions to our corporate clients, including IPO sponsorship, financial advisory, as well as underwriting (equity and debt) and placing services.

• Investment and Loans. We invest in equity and fixed income securities and other financial products for our own account. In addition, we may extend structure financing and loans to our clients to meet their various financing needs. Furthermore, we also invest in equity of privately-held companies for our own account.
