In this issue, we cover (among other things) Hong Kong’s flexible assistance to foreign regulators in cross-border securities law enforcement cases, the territory’s renewed focus on cross-border insider dealing, heightened regulation of virtual assets, and other key updates to regulatory standards and intermediaries/market supervision in Hong Kong and Singapore, including cyber resilience.
