Hong Kong SFC Licensed Firms & Individuals - Public Register Database

A free, searchable copy of the public register kept by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), updated daily. It covers licensed corporations and registered institutions and licensed individuals, current and former, with the licence history the SFC publishes for each.

The SFC publishes this register so that the public can check whether a firm or individual is licensed or registered to carry on regulated activities in Hong Kong. This site presents the same public information in a more accessible form; the official SFC register remains the authoritative source.

The website is operated by Chenning Xu, founder of Tilton Research. For questions or corrections: chenningxuecon@gmail.com or LinkedIn.
