The SFC has imposed a **lifetime ban and $17.43 million fine** on Lui Pak Tong for orchestrating a scheme where he exploited a fund under his control by directing $22.5 million in unsecured loans to a company he owned, while concealing conflicts of interest and diverting loan proceeds to himself and associates. This enforcement action demonstrates the SFC's aggressive stance on fiduciary breaches, undisclosed conflicts of interest, and self-dealing by licensed representatives, with direct implications for fund governance, investment committee oversight, and compliance with the Code of Conduct.

The SFC reprimanded and fined Kylin International (HK) Co., Limited $9 million for systemic failures in managing private sub-funds from August 2018 to July 2021, including unmanaged conflicts of interest, inadequate reconciliations/valuations, weak KYC/suitability controls, AML/CTF record-keeping lapses, and misrepresentations to investors. This enforcement action underscores the SFC's heightened scrutiny of private fund managers, emphasizing senior management accountability and robust systems/controls to protect market integrity. Compliance professionals should note it as a deterrent signal, aligning with recent SFC circulars on escalating penalties for persistent misconduct.
