How will SFC’s climate-related risk management and disclosure requirements affect asset managers? 2021

In Hong Kong, the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has amended the Fund Manager Code of Conduct (FMCC), setting out baseline and enhanced requirements for climate-related risks disclosure.

The FMCC new rules require Fund Managers managing collective investment schemes (CIS) to take climate-related risks into consideration in their investment and risk management processes and make appropriate disclosures. The requirements cover four key elements, namely governance, investment management, risk management and disclosure.

In this webinar from Ogier's Sustainable Investment series, Leonie Kelly and Kasia Zatorska will walk you through key points of the final version of SFC requirements; give an overview of a pragmatic solution tool for asset managers to comply with the changes; and provide practical actions you need to take to align with the requirements.

This webinar is intended for fund managers, asset managers, in-house counsel and compliance, portfolio analysts, senior management such as Responsible Officers, Managers-in-Charge, directors, CIOs, COOs, and CEOs. Click here to register.
