The Hong Kong Securities & Futures Commission (SFC) has released quick licensing requirement guides for Family Offices, Private Equity, Hedge Funds, Overseas Professionals and Mainland Industry Professionals. Hong Kong SFC: “The guides address frequently-asked questions about licensing topics and provide specific information about licensing carve-outs for family offices, recognition of overseas industry experience and qualifications and the availability of exemptions from examination requirements.” Keith Choy, Hong Kong SFC Interim Head of Intermediaries: “By providing useful, important and frequently sought information to prospective licence applicants via the quick reference guides, the SFC encourages more family offices and private equity businesses to operate in Hong Kong. These are part of the SFC’s ongoing efforts in consolidating Hong Kong’s leading role as a full-fledged international financial centre.” View Hong Kong SFC: Quick Reference Guides for family offices, private equity firms, hedge fund managers and overseas and Mainland industry professionals.

Hong Kong SFC: The SFC is constantly working to enhance the efficiency and transparency of its gatekeeping function. Since it moved to an all-digital environment in 2022, the average processing time for corporate licence applications from private fund managers has been shortened to about 14 weeks. The quick reference guides are available on the SFC website. Prospective licence applicants can also reach out to the SFC via dedicated contact points, which can also be found on the SFC website.
