About this seminar 

The new HKCO introduces considerable changes to financial statements and directors’ reports. Companies are recommended to take note of the application issues including pitfalls and tips against a backdrop of numerous FAQs and Q&As issued by the HKCR and the HKICPA respectively, including:

• a readily-available means to get rid of the disclosure requirements in relation to directors’ interests in transactions, arrangements or contracts.
•  a pragmatic way to list out the names of directors at group level.
• the validity of a late-registered special resolution for not preparing a business review etc.

Besides, the new HKCO contains new provisions governing the publication or issue of non-statutory accounts, which affect all listed and, beyond all expectations, many non-listed HK-companies. The consequence of non-compliance is simple but significant enough to put the provisions under the spotlight.

In this seminar, we will be looking at:
(1)        overview of financial reporting frameworks;
(2)        impact on directors’ reports;
(3)        impact on financial statements; and
(4)        publication or issue of non-statutory accounts (section 436)
and will share some HKCO-tools that could be helpful for financial reporting including a disclosure checklist for financial statements and directors’ reports, a template for declaration of directors’ remuneration, and a decision-tree for determining the applicability of section 436
