SFC launches 15-day fast-track authorisation for funds from MRF jurisdictions

Hong Kong's SFC has created a new accelerated authorisation route for simple retail funds domiciled in jurisdictions with which it holds mutual recognition arrangements. This circular sets out which funds qualify, the compressed timeline, and the pilot period during which the SFC will decide whether to make it permanent.

  • FASTrack targets authorisation within 15 business days of a complete application, against the standard one-to-two month and non-standard two-to-three month targets.
  • The SFC will take up or refuse an application within five business days and, if taken up, grant authorisation within 10 further business days.
  • Eligible funds must be equity, bond or mixed funds, index-tracking ETFs or unlisted funds, or feeder funds whose master fund is FASTrack-eligible, and must not be complex products.
  • The management company must be located in an MRF jurisdiction or an SFC-acceptable inspection regime (AIR) jurisdiction with good regulatory records.
  • FASTrack took effect on 4 November 2024 with a six-month pilot period ending 4 May 2025, after which the SFC will consider formal adoption.

The material covers derivatives exposure, liquidity risk management and money market fund disclosure, and is relevant to anyone managing or distributing SFC-authorised retail funds.

  • The revised UT Code was gazetted on 16 October 2026 and takes effect on 1 November 2026, following consultation conclusions issued 7 October 2026.
  • Funds will be subject to a 12-month transitional period, with new FAQs setting out implementation and transitional arrangements.
  • A revised derivatives guide introduces a Value-at-Risk approach, including calculation methodology and standards for managing funds' derivatives exposure.
  • A supplemental circular on liquidity risk management sets out enhanced requirements for assessing asset and portfolio liquidity, redemption terms, and the design and use of liquidity risk management tools.
  • Updated money market fund guidance sets minimum credit quality standards for eligible high-quality instruments and enhanced key facts statement disclosure for MMFs offering a constant NAV.
