Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has appointed Thomas Atkinson as executive director of enforcement for a three-year term, effective 3 May.
Atkinson is currently director of the enforcement branch of Canada’s Ontario Securities Commission, where he has served since 2009.
SFC CEO Ashley Alder said: “Thomas Atkinson is eminently qualified to head the enforcement division given his wealth of experience and knowledge in litigation and securities regulation.”
“I look forward to working closely with him in advancing the SFC’s strong track record in its enforcement work.”
The SFC oversees Hong Kong’s brokers, investment advisers, fund managers and intermediaries working in the futures, asset management and foreign exchange markets.
