He has held numerous company board memberships and was Chairman of CIC International (Hong Kong) Company Limited before his retirement earlier this year. In recognition of his contribution to Hong Kong he was awarded the Gold Bauhinia Star by the HKSAR Government in 2011.

This is also the case in his fourth role, the one in which we know him best: as our former Vice- Chancellor. Professor Lau was appointed the sixth Vice-Chancellor of The Chinese University of Hong Kong on 1 July 2004 and held the position until 30 June 2010. Currently he is Ralph and Claire Landau Professor of Economics in the University’s Institute of Global Economics and Finance.
