  Notes: Figures refer to 1 June of the year.
           A regional office (RO) is an office that coordinates offices/operations in the region (i.e. Hong Kong plus one or more other places), and manages
           the business but with frequent referrals to its parent company outside Hong Kong or its regional headquarters.
           ¢Ù The total number of companies that are regional offices by country/territory of incorporation of parent company in this table may be greater
           than the actual number because some companies are  joint ventures undertaken by two or more investors. The actual number for respective
           years is given in brackets.
