HKEx: no reform to placing mandate...or anything else
HKEx's decision to leave the Rules on dilutive issue mandates unchanged is an insult to investor opinion, expressed by their voting on this matter. Since the 2008 blackout saga, the Government and its regulators are unwilling to upset the local business elite with reforms. As China heads for an international currency, the tycoons are not as important to the market's future as HKEx seems to think they are. (27-Oct-2009)

HK's Takeunder Code
Three recent "takeunders" of Beauforte Investors, China Internet Global Alliance and Tung Fong Hung have reminded investors how ineffective Hong Kong's takeover code is. In each case, a buyer has been willing to pay a substantial premium for a stake which, while under 35%, is clearly enough to achieve control without making a general offer. Webb-site.com urges the SFC to reduce the threshold for these "takeunder" transactions. (18-Dec-2000)
