Hong Kong’s Big Year for IPOs to Close With Final Rush of Deals

Hong Kong’s red-hot market for initial public offerings is set to close the year with its busiest month for listings in at least four years as companies rush to list their shares.

Nineteen companies have either listed or laid out plans to debut their shares in December, on track for the most in a month since as far back as July 2021, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The number may increase as some companies are gauging interest this week before they start taking investor orders.
