This license entails rigorous application requirements, evaluating aspects such as the company’s business model, financial standing, corporate governance, qualifications of upper-level management and employees, and overall company performances. This approval authorizes us to offer clients a range of services, including:
- Execution of securities dealing transactions on behalf of clients;
- Distribution of securities such as unit trusts and mutual funds;

The company commented:
“The Hong Kong market is pivotal for Doo Group, presenting diverse strategic opportunities.
