According to the American Express / GBTA Business Traveler Sentiment Index™, Hong Kong-based companies are among the highest users of electronic receipts in the world; 28 percent of respondents said they submit receipts electronically the majority of the time, compared to a global average of 22 percent. In addition, 41 percent of respondents said they would opt for a corporate card if given the choice, with the most commonly cited reason being the ability to track expenses (24 percent).
 
The survey also showed that only 42 percent of Hong Kong respondents felt that their company cares about their well-being, versus 66 percent globally. Over half (54 percent) of respondents neither agreed nor disagreed, showing that demonstrations of care by employers are recognised by staff.
 
American Express pledges to continue evolving products and services, to cater the needs of Card Members and make their time on the road more productive and satisfying,” said Stephen Pendergast, Vice President & General Manager, Global Corporate Payments, Hong Kong & Taiwan at American Express International, Inc. “When the world is your office, increasing efficiency and getting the best return on your business travel spend is even more important – as is rewarding the employees who are partners in your success.
