HONG KONG -- A series of collaborative measures rolled out this week by Beijing and Hong Kong officials aimed at boosting Asia's worst performing markets appears to have done little toward persuading foreign investors to return.

Investors from well-known global institutions and local star firms who gathered in Hong Kong this week cast doubts on how effective the policies would be. So far, key concerns such as China's property crisis and low confidence appear unaddressed.
