Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing Ltd. said it will find new ways of publicizing earnings and other corporate events after hackers jammed its public news website.

The bourse, acting to safeguard communications from listed companies, will use e-mails and newspaper ads to back up its online system, Chief Executive Officer Charles Li said yesterday at a briefing. While the exchange’s news site appeared to be working today after two days of disruptions, spokesman Scott Sapp declined to confirm it was operating without any glitches.
