We were delighted to welcome Clifford Chance as co‑host of our recent webinar on AML.

Rocky Mui and Jonathan Wong opened the session with a concise overview of money laundering and terrorist financing risks, followed by a discussion of key legislation, including Hong Kong’s Anti‑Money Laundering and Counter‑Terrorist Financing Ordinance (AMLO).

They also highlighted the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA)’s regulatory priorities — particularly its focus on promoting the responsible use of technologies such as AI, and strengthening efforts to combat fraud and other financial crimes.

The session wrapped up with insightful observations on recent enforcement trends and actions, offering participants practical guidance for navigating today’s evolving AML landscape.
