〈Hong Kong Business, June 26, 2026〉Hong Kong’s plan to channel global private capital into commercial property through the Hong Kong Investment Corporation (HKIC) is drawing concern over transparency, with analysts warning that unclear project selection rules could weaken investor confidence.
“We are not really seeing any comparable transparency, and if you have to compare this model with the traditional land tender process, the latter is basically more open,” Jack Tong, director of research and consultancy at Savills Hong Kong, told Hong Kong Business via Zoom.
He said HKIC operates under a discretionary disclosure model, announcing partnerships only when projects reach a certain stage of maturity.

〈Asian Post, June 24, 2026〉Hong Kong’s commercial property market is drawing renewed buyer interest after deals surged 367% in Q1 2026, but the rebound remains concentrated in repriced office assets and exposed to interest rate and geopolitical risks.
Rosanna Tang, Executive Director and Head of Research at Cushman & Wakefield Hong Kong, said end-users and owner-occupiers have become the main drivers of office acquisitions. Between 2025 and Q1 2026, they accounted for around 75% of total office investment transaction volume, up from around 22% in 2018.
Tang said the shift reflects a steep correction in office values, which are down by over 60% from the last peak. “The current cycle presents a very timely opportunity for owner-occupiers to bottom-fish,” she said.
〈RTHK News, June 23, 2026〉Overseas firms said on Thursday they plan to further expand in Hong Kong due to the city's rapidly developing innovation and technology ecosystem as well as its connectivity with the world.

Together, they are estimated to bring in over HK$53 billion in foreign direct investment, while creating over 8,600 new jobs, according to InvestHK, the government's investment promotion agency.
