活動編號
Code 3822 (25 Oct 2022)
活動重點

In recent years, many listing applicants and listed issuers adopted multiple equity incentive schemes, including those which are not governed under Chapter 17 of the Listing Rules. In October 2021, the Stock Exchange launched a consultation on Proposed Amendments to Listing Rules relating to Share Schemes of Listed Issuers. The long-awaited consultation conclusion was published on 29 July 2022, adopting the proposal to extend the Listing Rules to govern all share schemes involving grants of share awards and share options. In addition, there will be enhanced regulation to manage dilution of listed shares and provide informative disclosure to maintain high levels of shareholder protection. The amended Listing Rules will take effect on 1 January 2023.

This webinar will cover the following matters:

1.         Trend of equity incentive schemes

2.         Characteristics of different types of schemes

3.         HKEx’s consultation paper on Proposed Amendments to Listing Rules relating to Share Schemes of Listed Issuers

4.         Consultation conclusion and rule changes - expected actions by listed issuers

5.         Regulatory actions and vetting attitudes of the Stock Exchange towards share Schemes
