AIMA APAC invites you to join our webinar on 8 November 2021.

The SFC released its Consultation Conclusions on proposed amendments to its anti-money laundering and counter-financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) guidelines in September 2021.

The proposed amendments align the guidelines with the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) standards and address some areas for improvement identified in the latest FATF Mutual Evaluation Report of Hong Kong published in September 2019 which are relevant to licensed corporations.

This panel will share key highlights in the Consultation Conclusions and AIMA’s response to the consultation, as well as discuss the implications of the revised guidelines for asset managers.
