Applicability of Enhanced Measures to Sale of Investment Products to Corporate Customers

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority issued this circular to define the applicability of enhanced investor protection measures for corporate banking business.

The regulator also clarifies that hedging transactions are exempt unless over-hedged and mandates strict controls to prevent the abuse of exemptions for professional partnerships.
