Index compiler HSI Services said late Friday it's examining a plan that will allow mainland-incorporated companies, otherwise known as H-shares, to join the Hang Seng under certain circumstances.
Among the first in line to join the index is China Construction Bank (HK:939: news, chart, profile), the mainland's third largest commercial lender which had capitalization of HK$735.85 billion ($94.8 billion) at Friday's closing.
Broadening the participation of mainland enterprises on the Hang Seng is believed to be an important step in keeping the index relevant, given recent trading activity which has seen fund flows bypass Hong Kong-focused stocks and target directly China plays.
