HK updates Securities and Futures Ordinance
In August 2023, Hong Kong's Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) announced amendments to the insider dealing provisions of the Securities and Futures Ordinance. The amendments aim to expand the definition of insider dealing to include acts involving overseas-listed securities if any part occurs in Hong Kong and acts involving Hong Kong-listed securities regardless of location. Proposals to expand SFC's power over regulated persons and to amend advertisement authorisation exemptions for financial products were put on hold due to public concerns. The SFC will consider other options to achieve its policy objectives.

Does Common Ownership Constrain Rent Extraction by Managers?
Over the past four decades, common ownership by institutional investors in U.S. public firms has increased significantly. This study explores whether common ownership curbs opportunistic insider trading by managers. The findings suggest that common institutional owners, due to their economies of scale in information acquisition and processing, are better positioned to monitor and reduce insider trading. The study shows that firms with common ownership have about 20% lower insider trading profitability compared to those without. Additionally, common owners are more likely to adopt restrictive measures and penalize executives engaging in opportunistic insider trading. These findings highlight a beneficial economic consequence of common ownership, suggesting that common institutional investors play a valuable role in corporate governance.
