AGENDA:

  • Session I - 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. Financial Services Regulatory and Litigation Update: Where Do We Go From Here?

    Industry disruption caused by the pandemic and new technologies are creating unique challenges and opportunities for in-house counsel in financial services.  From the new Biden Administration’s focus on expanding the regulatory environment, fair lending protections, as well as artificial intelligence tools making credit decisions, to the inevitable rise in defaults and litigation caused by the pandemic, this is no time to be in the dark.
     

  • Break - 10:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.

  • Session II - 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.  Digital Asset Custody Update

    Federal regulators (CFTC, SEC, OCC) are beginning to provide guidance around custody of digital assets by financial institutions. While the regulators are signaling that they are open to financial institutions providing digital asset custodial services, they have not provided specific guidance around developing internal compliance programs and best practices for these services. Financial institutions that are exploring establishing a digital asset custodian should ensure they understand (and incorporate) the latest guidance from the relevant federal regulators and the operational and technical requirements of best-in-class digital asset custody. In this session, our team will provide guidance on these developments.

The ACC Hong Kong Board of Directors invites you to the following presentation, hosted by:

In collaboration with EY, this session will focus on the typical fund structures and recent tax developments impacting the funds industry in Hong Kong and Singapore. Hong Kong and Singapore are well known as regional fund management hubs, and they have continued to evolve their regimes and initiatives (in terms of fund structures and tax exemption regimes) to meet the commercial needs of the industry and attract further investment.

The session will address Hong Kong vs Singapore as a fund platform location, including the recent introduction of a new Hong Kong Limited Partnership regime and the reform of the Hong Kong Open-Ended Fund Company regime; as well as the Singapore Variable Capital Company structure; and how they can be used within the fund structure. Further, the session will provide a quick overview of the recently gazetted Inland Revenue (Amendment) (Tax Concessions for Carried Interest) Bill 2021 in Hong Kong.

The impact on businesses of the COVID-19 pandemic has only begun to be felt.  Despite the large increase in bankruptcy cases already seen since the beginning of the pandemic, an even more dramatic increase should be expected in 2021 and beyond as a result of the challenging financial situation that the pandemic has caused.  This will create problems for businesses in all industries and for their partners, customers and vendors for years to come. This virtual roundtable program, moderated by Schnader’s Richard Barkasy and Kenneth Puhala, will consider the bankruptcy and restructuring trends and issues businesses should expect to see, the options to prepare for and manage these challenges, and how in-house counsel can best respond.
