It houses offices and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. It is served by the Central and Hong Kong stations of the MTR metro system. Most part of the Exchange Square is owned by Hong Kong Land, with the remaining portions owned by the American Club of Hong Kong and the Government. The building has three blocks, namely, One Exchange Square, Two Exchange Square and Three Exchange Square. A shopping block known as The Forum was redeveloped as an office building in 2011–14. The ground level houses a large bus terminus, Central (Exchange Square) Bus Terminus. TenantsThe property is the home of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong since the 1980s. It also houses many international banking and law firms including Bank of Montreal, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Lloyd George Management, Ropes & Gray, RPC, Latham & Watkins, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, Allen & Overy and Allens Arthur Robinson. Exchange Square is also home to the consulates in Hong Kong of Argentina, Canada, Japan, the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre, and the American Club of Hong Kong. PlotHong Kong Land tendered the Government $4.76 billion for the plot in February 1982, when the market was at a record high. Prices subsequently dropped, necessitating its debt to be restructured. In February 1983, HKL obtained an eight-year loan of $4 billion, a record. In December 1983, it announced that the plot was to be mortgaged to secure a $2.5 billion loan facility.[2] The second instalment of $2 billion on the plot was due in the financial year 1984/85[3] Phase threeDevelopment cost HK$750m, 32-storey {{convert|322000|sqft|m2|-2|sing=on}} office tower, {{convert|32000|sqft|m2|-2|sing=on}} mall, substructure contractor Gammon Hong Kong[4] The ForumThe Forum ({{zh|t=富臨閣}}) was a shopping complex at the podium level.
