Continuous professional training (“CPT”)

Licensed corporations and registered institutions are primarily responsible for designing and implementing a continuous education program best suited to the training needs of the Licensed Representatives or relevant individuals they engage.

The SFC has issued in March 2003 the Guidelines on Continuous Professional Training pursuant to section 399 of the SFO. Licensed individuals and relevant individuals of registered institutions are generally required to complete five CPT hours per calendar year for each regulated activity which they may carry out, except for Type 7 (providing automated trading services) regulated activity. Failure to comply with the guidelines on CPT may reflect adversely on the fitness and properness of a person to continue to carry on the regulated activity.

Obligation for substantial shareholders

Under section 132 of the SFO, a person (including a corporation) has to apply for the SFC’s approval prior to becoming or continuing to be, as the case may be, a substantial shareholder of a corporation licensed under section 116 of the SFO. A person who has become aware that he/she/it has become a substantial shareholder of a licensed corporation without the SFC’s prior approval should, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within three business days after he/she/it becomes so aware, apply to the SFC for approval to continue to be a substantial shareholder of the licensed corporation.

Variation of regulated activity specified in license or certificate of registration

Under section 127(1) of the SFO, a licensed corporation may apply in the prescribed manner and payment of the prescribed fee to the SFC to vary the regulated activity specified in its license or certificate of registration. Prior approval would also need to be obtained from the SFC in cases such as addition or reduction of regulated activity, modification or waiver of licensing conditions and change of financial year end.
