HONG KONG, Dec 11, 2017 - (ACN Newswire) - Shandong International Trust Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 1697.HK) commenced dealings on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange yesterday. It becomes the first Chinese trust to get listed in Hong Kong for the past two decades.
Mrs. Wang Yingli, the chairperson of Shandong International Trust stated, "Listing on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited is an important milestone in the history of the Company. It is a new start for the strategic development target in the future. The Company will take it as the starting point, abide the Listing Rules of the stock exchange strictly and carefully use the proceeds to create better value to return investors and the society."
China's trust industry managed a combined 22 trillion yuan of assets at the end of the first quarter of 2017, up 25 per cent year on year, according to figures from China Trustee Association. Analysts said a Hong Kong IPO has become a relatively better choice for trust firms, as mainland regulators view direct A-share listing plans with caution.

With the rapid development of Shandong's economy, the number of HNWIs in Shandong increased rapidly in recent years. The large number of HNWIs in Shandong has provided SDITC a huge potential client base for the development of the trust business and, in particular, SDITC's personal wealth management and family trust businesses. As of May 31, 2017, SDITC had 17,348 trustor clients from Shandong, which accounted for 32.5% of SDITC's total trustor clients.

SDITC intends to continue to strengthen traditional business, enhance active management capabilities, rapidly expand trust business that provide asset management and wealth management services, capture new business opportunities through continuous innovation, and build up brand image as a high-quality and trustworthy financial service provider in China.
