The Monetary Authority of Macao (AMCM) organised a Shanghai presentation session on the advantages and development opportunities of Macao’s investment funds sector, aimed at promoting the framework following the formal entry into force of Macao’s Investment Funds Law and related supporting measures. The event, supported by the Macao Trade and Investment Promotion Institute (IPIM) and co-organised with the Macao Securities and Funds Industry Association, was complemented by exchanges with municipal financial authorities in Shanghai and Suzhou and visits to local financial institutions and fund-related businesses. The session drew around 170 representatives from Shanghai, Suzhou and Macao, spanning government bodies, industry associations, fund managers, banks, insurers and corporates. AMCM representatives outlined the legal and supporting measures for investment fund activities in Macao, while IPIM covered Macao’s business environment and company formation procedures; industry speakers discussed cross-border fund opportunities and local market trends, and prospective fund managers debated the merits of establishing operations in Macao. AMCM indicated that three fund management companies have already been authorised to set up in Macao, with one having launched Macao’s first public fund. AMCM plans additional presentation and exchange activities in the first half of 2026 across cities in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area and the Guangdong–Macao In-depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin, among other locations, to attract further qualified and sizeable fund management firms to establish in Macao.
