HKEx: Legal Proceedings Involving A Subsidiary

Date 08/10/2014

As disclosed on 24 December 2013, The London Metal Exchange (“the LME”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (“HKEx”), was named as a defendant in a judicial review claim commenced by United Company RUSAL Plc (“Rusal”) and filed in the English High Court (the “High Court”) on 23 December 2013. The judicial review sought to challenge the LME’s decision to introduce changes to its warehousing policy as announced in its notice dated 7 November 2013 (the “Decision”). The Decision was made following a three-month market consultation commenced by the LME in July 2013. As disclosed on 27 March 2014, the High Court found in favour of Rusal on one specific procedural issue, quashing the LME’s consultation on the proposed rule changes and its decision to introduce the linked load-in load-out rule (the “Quashing Order”). The LME applied for, and was granted, permission to appeal the judgment to the English Court of Appeal (the “Court of Appeal”). The hearing of the appeal took place on 29 and 30 July 2014. On 8 October 2014, the Court of Appeal allowed the LME’s appeal against the High Court Judgment. The Court of Appeal unanimously found in favour of the LME on all grounds. The Court of Appeal has denied Rusal leave to appeal to the Supreme Court and has also denied Rusal’s request to stay the Court of Appeal’s setting aside of the Quashing Order. The LME will proceed to implement the proposed linked load-in load-out rule change in due course.
