Chan Chun-ying, a financial sector legislator in the Hong Kong Legislative Council, said that the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has been monitoring unlicensed operations, but the SFC can only intervene if there is evidence that the platform is engaged in business activities. Since unlicensed platforms are not within the regulatory scope of the SFC, investors cannot claim compensation if the platform collapses. Therefore, the JPEX case can only be investigated by the police for fraud. In light of this experience, Chan understands that the SFC will remind investors online if unlicensed trading platforms advertise in the future. Investors should also check the SFC's list of licensed trading platforms before making investments. (Hong Kong Wen Wei Po)Regulatory Policies
