Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEx) has donated $300,000 to the Hong Kong Red Cross to help support the Typhoon Haiyan relief operation.

“We are overwhelmed by the catastrophic consequence left by the typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines,” said HKEx Chairman C K Chow.  “It has taken thousands of lives and made millions homeless.  The grief of the victims is shared by many in Hong Kong and our thoughts are with them at this very difficult time.  We hope that our donation together with the support of other donors will help a neighbour in need.   In addition to the donation from the Company, we are encouraging our staff to consider contributing to the relief effort.”
