Abstract: This article will describe the characteristics and peculiarities of the two programs that allow foreign investors, including individual investors, to have access to Chinese stock markets: Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect. Specifically, the article will examine the Northbound channels used by Hong Kong brokers to buy A-shares and the Southbound channels used by Mainland investors to buy the securities listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong, outlining the common provisions and typical features. Lastly, we will mention the opportunities and benefits that Chinese stock markets offer to global investors in terms of portfolio diversification.
