Upholding Governance, Integrity And Audit Excellence In Hong Kong’s Capital Markets Keynote Speech At Deloitte's Hong Kong CFO Forum Dr Kelvin Wong Chairman, Hong Kong Securities And Futures Commission

Date 24/04/2026

Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon.

It is a great pleasure to join you today at the Deloitte CFO Forum, among the key stewards of Hong Kong’s financial ecosystem—Chief Financial Officers (CFOs), Independent NonExecutive Directors (INEDs) and auditors. Let me start with a clear purpose today: to reaffirm our shared roles and responsibilities for safeguarding the quality, credibility and resilience of Hong Kong’s capital markets.

Sound financial reporting is the lifeblood of our economy. It underpins market confidence, supports efficient capital allocation and sustains public trust. As an international financial centre (IFC), Hong Kong can only thrive with a regulatory regime that is internationally aligned, protects investors, demands transparency, and expects directors and auditors to uphold the highest standards of integrity.

This afternoon, I would like to focus on one central idea: governance must move beyond boxticking conformance to become a driver of performance, accountability and trust.
