The Hong Kong Stock Exchange published a consultation paper in February 2023 proposing a number of changes to the Hong Kong Listing Rules affecting issuers incorporated in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"). Such amendments are triggered by the implementation of new PRC regulations on overseas listings by domestic companies and the repeal of certain PRC regulations (including the Special Regulations on the Overseas Offering and Listing of Shares by Joint Stock Limited Companies and the Mandatory Provisions for Companies Listing Overseas and the Regulations) which came into effect on 31 March 2023.

This session will provide in-house counsel with an update on the latest development affecting the PRC issuers and share practical tips on ongoing compliance.
