Court orders confiscation of HK$63m crime proceeds from convicted warrants trader Mr Ha But YeeJudgment
ICAC, 11-May-2023
In a cash-or-time offer, Mr Ha can either pay HK$63m or do 10 more years in jail. The judgment makes clear that he has this amount in realisable assets, less than the HK$125.7m proceeds of crime. The ICAC is wrong on one point: Ma Sin Chi wasn't a director of Deutsche Bank AG (the top-level German company), he was an SFC-licensed Responsible Officer of a HK subsidiary, Deutsche Securities Asia Ltd.
SFC fines Deutsche Securities Asia Ltd HK$2.45m over bonus share SNAFUStatement of Disciplinary Action
SFC, 24-Jun-2021
Not for the first time, a firm falls foul of the antiquated HK listco practice of issuing "bonus shares", which temporarily freeze part of the market cap until they are issued and do nothing for shareholder value except to generate expenses. Also, Deutsche took 6 months to confess to the SFC.

HKSAR v Ma Sin Chi & Ha But Yee: reasons for sentence
HK Court of First Instance, 26-Feb-2018
Ex-Deutsche Bank executive and warrant trader admit HK$6.4m bribery
ICAC, 22-Jan-2018
Ha But Yee admits paying HK$6.4m to Ma Sin Chi between Jan-2007 and May-2008, for information on derivative warrants issued by DB. Mr Ha and his family made a net profit of over HK$203m through trading of DB warrants. Ma remained a Responsible Officer of DB until 6-Jan-2012. The ICAC doesn't mention that this guilty plea follows a previous trial in which the defendants were found guilty but the convictions were quashed by the Court of Appeal due to misdirection of the jury by the Judge. By then, they had already served 2.5 years of a 7-year sentence.
