Composition of the Sub-Committee

Suggestions on Immediate Measures to Improve Communication

• Requested the Chairman to draft a short message highlighting the major points in the most recent EXCO meeting when sending the minutes of the meeting via email to members (implemented).

• Send the weekly HKEJ article via an email link to all members (implemented).

• Send out regular “What’s New?” email messages to members highlighting major events in the market or with the Association.

• Each Sub-Committee should set up its own corner in the Association’s website.

Website Reconstruction

• Expanded the content of the website to include market data such as Exchange Fund Bills and Notes yields and interest rate swap levels.

• Incorporated new issue and league table information into the website.

• Created a Members-Only log-in system to facilitate online voting for members.  

The reconstructed and revamped HKCMA website has been successfully launched and all members/visitors will be able to access much more substantial information in a user friendly and visually attractive setting.
