Guide to Authorization - Chapter 3: The Legal and Supervisory Framework

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority issues this guide to outline the legal and supervisory framework governing authorized institutions under the Banking Ordinance. The document details the MA's statutory powers to enforce prudential standards, including capital, liquidity, and exposure limits, while coordinating with other regulators for securities, insurance, and derivatives activities. It further describes the risk-based supervisory methodology, utilizing the CAMEL rating system and continuous on-site and off-site examinations to monitor institutional safety and soundness.
