March 24 (Reuters) - Insurer AIA Group Ltd said on Friday it has applied to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange
for a dual currency counter to allow investors to trade its
shares in the yuan, in addition to the Hong Kong dollar.
In December, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange said it would
introduce a new dual counter trading model from the first half
of 2023 where investors will be able to interchange securities
listed in both Hong Kong dollars and renminbi counters.
