Senior Managers of firms licensed by the Securities and Futures Commission ("SFC") should take heed of the twin circulars recently issued by the regulator, which broadly address the security and integrity of a firm's information management system.  These SFC circulars follow a recent circular from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority ("HKMA") to licensed banks in Hong Kong on the same topic.
