New Delhi, Oct 30 The vast Indian talent pool in fintech, logistics and banking sectors is set to benefit from Hong Kong's new visa scheme, which was announced recently to stem a brain drain that has risked the city's status as an international financial centre.

With the city's workforce shrinking by about 140,000 people over the last two years, Chief Executive John Lee announced the "Top Talent Pass Scheme" this month, which includes incentives for high earners and top university graduates.

The scheme grants a two-year visa to individuals who earn no less than HK$2.5 million
