Public Companies
Public companies listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX) are subject to more stringent audit and financial reporting requirements. These companies must comply with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (HKFRS) and have their financial statements audited annually by qualified independent auditors.
Foreign Companies Operating in Hong Kong
Foreign companies operating in Hong Kong may also be subject to statutory audit requirements, depending on their corporate structure and business activities. The specific audit obligations vary, making it essential for foreign entities to seek professional advice to ensure compliance with Hong Kong’s local regulations.
