SFC Mock Inspection Services

      As the regulatory landscape for asset managers continues to evolve, ensuring your firm remains fully aligned with the Securities and Futures Commission’s (SFC) requirements has never been more crucial.

      In recent years, the SFC has highlighted key areas of focus for asset managers, particularly for those overseeing private funds and discretionary accounts (Type 9). With heightened scrutiny on risk management, conflicts of interest, and fiduciary duties, it’s essential for firms to adopt a proactive approach to compliance.

      At Waystone, we recognise the importance of not only meeting the SFC’s regulatory requirements, but also ensuring your firm is fully prepared for any regulatory review. With over 100 compliance specialists globally, including extensive expertise in Hong Kong, we are well-positioned to guide you through the complexities of SFC regulations. Our SFC Mock Inspections help identify potential compliance gaps before the SFC conducts their inspections, giving you the opportunity to address them proactively.
