                   Shanghai, Hong Kong to Link Stock Markets

   by VOA News

   Market regulators have approved a trading link between the Hong Kong
   and Shanghai stock exchanges, which will give foreign investors greater
   access to China's stock market.

   In a joint statement issued Monday, the China Securities Regulatory
   Commission and Hong Kong's Securities and Futures Commission said
   trading via the link will start on November 17.

   The agreement will allow international investors to trade selected
   stocks on Shanghai's tightly restricted exchange and let mainland
   investors buy shares in Hong Kong.

   It is thought cross-border trading will amount to $3.8 billion a day.
