Enhanced disclosure requirements on sale of structured products not regulated by the Securities and Futures Ordinance

The Securities and Futures Commission issued this circular to establish enhanced disclosure requirements for authorized institutions selling structured products that fall outside the regulatory scope of the Securities and Futures Ordinance. The document mandates specific information disclosure standards to ensure transparency and protect investors when dealing with these unregulated financial instruments. It serves as a regulatory update superseding previous guidance from December 2012 regarding the applicability of SFC requirements to such sales.
