Portfolio-based Approach to Suitability Assessment
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority issued this circular to guide registered institutions in adopting a portfolio-based approach to suitability assessments for wealth management and MPF products. The guidance requires firms to evaluate the suitability of investment recommendations by considering the client's overall portfolio rather than individual products in isolation. This regulatory update aims to enhance investor protection by ensuring that investment advice aligns with the client's total financial situation and risk profile.
