The Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX) is one of the largest and most prominent stock exchanges in Asia. Founded in 1891, HKEX has grown into a global financial hub, serving as a critical bridge between international capital and mainland Chinese companies.
Unlike mainland Chinese exchanges, HKEX operates under Hong Kong’s regulatory framework, which allows for greater access and flexibility for foreign investors.
Market data is available via the ICE Consolidated Feed, including indices as well as Level 1 and Level 2 equities on the cash market. Historical and end-of-day data is also available to support analysis, reporting, and trading workflows.

Key Features
For clients looking to access normalized data the ICE Consolidated Feed provides functionality that allows for seamless application programming, using proprietary symbology that is easy to consume, human-readable and based on exchange tickers. Reference data fields are presented in consistent format with popular fields such as Instrument Types, Marketplace Codes and Instrument Names available in both ICE proprietary and native exchange format. Additional third party identifiers, such as CUSIP & ISIN are also available (note that some may require separate licensing).
Covering both individual instrument status (normal/halted/suspended) and market phase (auction/continuous/etc.), the ICE Consolidated Feed presents status as a globally consistent set of values, while also maintaining a separate set of fields with the native exchange presentation. Including both native exchange timestamps in their original time zone and granularity, and ICE system timestamps in UTC, gives clients flexibility and choice, that carries through to the tick by tick files provided by ICE Consolidated History.
