How does an MRF agreement work?
The MRF regime operates on the principle that where a fund has been authorised by or registered with the relevant authority in a specified jurisdiction (home jurisdiction), it is generally deemed to have complied in substance with the relevant regulatory requirements in Hong Kong. Applications to authorize funds registiered in those specified jurisdictions will therefore benefit from a streamlined authorization process. The MRF regime thus offers a fast track to offer such funds to the retail public in Hong Kong.
