MTR Corporation Limited (OTCMKTS: MTCPY) is a Hong Kong-based operator of rail and integrated property developments. Founded in 1975 to develop and run the city’s first subway line, MTR has since grown into one of the world’s leading urban transit operators. It merged with the Kowloon–Canton Railway Corporation in 2007, unifying Hong Kong’s major rail networks under one management. The company’s “Rail + Property” model links transit operations with the development and management of residential, commercial and retail properties above and alongside rail stations.
The company’s core business consists of operating heavy and light rail lines in Hong Kong, supported by feeder bus and taxi services, station retail and advertising activities. MTR’s property arm acquires development rights around new and existing railway stations, leveraging transit-oriented development to generate recurring rental and capital income. Its portfolio includes major residential complexes, shopping centres and office buildings integrated within key transport hubs.
Beyond Hong Kong, MTR has extended its expertise through international concessions and consultancy contracts. The corporation is engaged in rail operations and network expansions in London, Stockholm and Melbourne, and delivers rail system design, project management and maintenance services across Asia, Europe and Australia. These overseas ventures diversify MTR’s revenue streams and reinforce its reputation as a turnkey provider of rail infrastructure and urban development solutions.
Governed by a board chaired by Fanny Law Fan Chiu-fun and led by a chief executive officer, MTR maintains a strong focus on safety, sustainable growth and customer service. The Government of Hong Kong is the company’s majority shareholder, ensuring close alignment with public transport policies and urban planning objectives. With a workforce exceeding 12,000 employees worldwide, MTR continues to pursue strategic expansion and innovative transit solutions that support urban mobility and community development in its core markets and beyond.
