Zetland Newsletter

Newsletter - Edition May 2023

We are delighted to bring you the latest edition of our newsletter, highlighting the thriving business landscape in Hong Kong and the recent developments in the taxation domain. As Asia's premier financial hub, Hong Kong continues to demonstrate resilience and an unwavering commitment to fostering a conducive environment for corporate growth and success.

Amidst global challenges, we are pleased to report that Hong Kong is open for business and rebounding with vigor. The city's remarkable rebound can be attributed to its strong fundamentals, strategic location, robust regulatory framework, and a business-friendly ecosystem. As a result, Hong Kong has maintained its position as Asia's number one financial hub, attracting businesses and investors from around the globe.

One area that has witnessed notable changes is the taxation landscape. Recognizing the need for transparency and compliance, Hong Kong has implemented new regulations to enhance financial governance. Notably, companies in Hong Kong are now required to file their Annual Financial Statements (AFS) alongside the Profits Tax Return (PTR). This shift aims to strengthen financial reporting practices and ensure accurate representation of a company's financial position.

These changes demonstrate Hong Kong's commitment to upholding international standards and maintaining its reputation as a global financial center. By adhering to these new regulations, companies can bolster their credibility, build trust among stakeholders, and contribute to the overall integrity of Hong Kong's business ecosystem.

At Zetland Fiduciary Group, we understand the importance of staying up-to-date with evolving regulations and helping our clients navigate through the changing landscape. Our team of experts is well-versed in the latest taxation requirements and can provide comprehensive support to ensure compliance and optimize your business operations.

As Hong Kong continues to forge ahead, we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for businesses in this dynamic city. We remain committed to being your trusted partner, providing tailored corporate services and expert guidance to help you thrive in this thriving financial hub.

Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to serving your business needs as we embark on this exciting journey together.

Best regards,

Veronica Tam
