HSBC’s Hong Kong-listed shares rose to as high as HK$31.30 when trade opened on Monday following the deal, in which Ping An bought 10.8m shares at an average of HK$28.29 each. Shares were up 9.6 per cent in afternoon trading in Hong Kong, on track for their best one-day rise in more than 11 years. The bank’s London-listed shares opened up 10.5 per cent.
