"Taiwan Weeks 2026" Opens to Boost Capital Market Connectivity

Taiwan has inaugurated its second annual "Taiwan Weeks" to enhance global capital market connections and further its goal of becoming a leading asset management hub in Asia. The event gathered over 400 participants, including global exchange leaders and institutional investors. Organized by multiple major Taiwanese financial bodies, the initiative emphasizes internationalizing financial markets and promoting financial innovations.

The Financial Supervisory Commission underscored Taiwan's evolution from a tech hub to a capital market center, driven by its thriving semiconductor and AI industries. The benchmark TAIEX saw a significant rise, and Taiwan's ETF market positioned itself as the third largest in the Asia-Pacific region.

Prominent figures like Michael Bloomberg and executives from global financial institutions discussed capital market reforms, economic growth, and AI opportunities. The event features 45+ forums, focusing on asset management, sustainable finance, and innovation, connecting international capital with Taiwan.
