The Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, which links the mainland and Hong Kong bourses, made its debut on December 5.

It is the second link of its kind to boost opening up of the mainland's capital market after a similar link between the Shanghai and Hong Kong bourses was launched in 2014. The two stock links will make China's capital market more open and healthier, analysts said.
