Mr Hui thanked the outgoing members, Mr Chan Kam-hon and Mr Anthony Chiu Ling-cheong, for their support for the work of the RRT and the RCT respectively.
The RRT and the RCT are statutory tribunals established under the Financial Institutions (Resolution) Ordinance (Cap. 628) to hear appeals from persons aggrieved by the specified decisions made by the resolution authorities and independent valuer. The Monetary Authority, the Insurance Authority and the Securities and Futures Commission are the resolution authorities under the Ordinance and are vested with a range of powers to effect orderly resolution for maintaining the stability of the financial system of Hong Kong. An independent valuer decides whether any pre-resolution creditor or shareholder is eligible for a payment of compensation. The chairperson of the RRT and the RCT is Mr Anson Wong Man-kit, SC.
