(Question Serial No. 0982) Head: (148) Government Secretariat: Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau (Financial Services Branch) Subhead (No. & title): (-) Not Specified Programme: (1) Financial Services Controlling Officer: Permanent Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury (Financial Services) (Ms Michelle LI) Director of Bureau: Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Question: The estimate for 2020-21 is $395.5 million higher than that for 2019-20, representing an increase of 53.6%. According to the analysis on page 405, this is mainly due to the increased cash flow requirement for non-recurrent commitment items, and anticipated increase in hire of services and professional fees and general departmental expenses. However, as stated in Matters Requiring Special Attention in 2020-21 on page 403, the Branch is basically continuing with the tasks of last year. Regarding these tasks, would the Government provide a comparison of the progress of last year with that of the coming year to justify the 53.6% increase in the estimate? Asked by: Hon CHAN Chun-ying (LegCo internal reference no.: 21) Reply: The cash flow requirement of the general non-recurrent items for 2020-21 estimate will increase by about $340.9 million as compared with the 2019-20 revised estimate, as set out below – Changes in cash-flow Commitment General Non-recurrent Item requirement ($’000) ($’000) 1 Funding for promoting and facilitating the development of the financial 500,000 +22,196 services sector 2 Funding requirements for the eMPF Platform for the administration of 3,903,630 +414,788 Mandatory Provident Fund registered schemes Session 4 FSTB(FS) - Page 1 Changes in cash-flow Commitment General Non-recurrent Item requirement ($’000) ($’000) 3 One-off funding for promoting and facilitating the development of the 300,000 +300,000 insurance industry in Hong Kong (New item created in 2020-21 estimates) 4 Pilot programme to enhance talent training for the insurance sector and the 100,000 +3,902 asset and wealth management sector 5 One-off provision of seed capital to the 400,000 -400,000 Financial Reporting Council in 2019-20 Total 5,203,630 +340,886 The estimated expenditure on hire of services and professional fees and general departmental expenses in 2020-21 will increase by about $42 million as compared with the 2019-20 revised estimate. This is mainly due to the expenses on strengthening our publicity and promotion of Hong Kong’s financial services industry both globally and in the Mainland. In the coming year, apart from continuing our work on promoting the financial services industry on various fronts, we would enhance publicity support for the "Asian Financial Forum", "Hong Kong FinTech Week", and other relevant signature events, including inviting international speakers of repute to these events. The Financial Services Branch (or through supporting the work of the Financial Services Development Council) would also promote Hong Kong's competiveness as a major international financial centre through media events, seminars, or events in partnership with industry associations and reputable organisations.

INTRODUCTION Using the recently adjudicated landmark case in Hong Kong of Securities and Futures Commission v China Metal Recycling (Holdings) Limited1as a launching board this article discusses and analyzes the complexities surrounding cross-border (corporate) insolvencies (“CBIs”) between Hong Kong and mainland China (HK-China CBI). Going forward, HK-China CBI will have a direct bearing on decisions made by Hong Kong and Chinese courts; since they are already increasingly requested to adjudicate on the same issues during a corporate insolvency, a new mechanism is called for in order to provide a practical and economically viable resolution to the regional conflict of laws issue arising from Hong Kong and mainland China having different insolvency laws in spite of Hong Kong being a part of mainland China, although a special administrative region within it.
