姚嘉仁先生榮休
香港交易所副行政總裁、聯席營運總監及市場聯席主管姚嘉仁先生將於今年12月底，在年僅54歲之際選擇榮休。對於姚先生這個適時的決定，香港證券及期貨專業總會致以由衷的祝賀。
本會認為姚先生雖然在港交所任職僅約六年，卻在這短暫時期內為香港金融市場帶來不少新氣象。姚先生亦突破港交所前人包袱，推動多項「創新」措施，為市場留下了「深刻」印象。特別在各方雜聲下仍堅持推動「打風不停市」成功落實，而事實亦證明惡劣天氣下如常交易，為港股日均成交額帶來難以估算的重大裨益。
衷心祝願姚先生能在退休後找到新的旅程。深信在他任內建立的良好基礎上，香港金融市場必將繼續蓬勃發展，再創新高。

Mr. Wilfred Yiu's Retirement Announcement
Mr. Wilfred Yiu, the Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Co-Chief Operating Officer & Co-Head of Markets at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, has chosen to retire at the end of December this year at the age of just 54. The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Professionals Association extends heartfelt congratulations on Mr. Yiu's timely decision.
The Association believes that although Mr. Yiu has only served at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for about six years, he has brought significant new developments to the Hong Kong financial market during this brief period. Mr. Yiu has also broken free from the previous constraints of the Exchange, promoting several "innovative" measures that have left a "profound" impression on the market. Notably, despite various external pressures, he has persisted in successfully implementing the "severe weather trading" initiative, which has proven to be immensely beneficial for daily trading volumes in Hong Kong stocks during severe weather conditions.
We sincerely wish Mr. Yiu the best in finding new journeys after retirement. We firmly believe that on the solid foundation he has established during his tenure, the Hong Kong financial market will continue to thrive and reach new heights.
