Notes
: Figures refer to the first working day of June of the year.
A regional headquarters (RHQ) is an office that has control over the
operations of offices
in the region (i.e. Hong Kong plus one or more other
places), and manages the business without frequent referrals to its
parent company
outside Hong Kong.
In the case of a joint-ventured regional headquarters in Hong Kong,
there may be more
than one country/territory of incorporation /location
of its parent company/companies.
