Both mainland B-share markets depend on orders from Hong Kong for much for their volume. B shares can be traded by foreign investors, or mainlanders with access to a foreign passport and currency, unlike A shares, which are restricted to Chinese investors and traded only in yuan.

The Credit Lyonnais Shenzhen A-share index rose 79.70 points, or 4.9 per cent, to close at 1,705.30.
