2Effective from 22 November 2023, the name of the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) has been changed to Accounting and Financial Reporting Council (AFRC). Consequently, the FRC Transaction Levy that is applied on all HKEX trades will now be renamed as AFRC Transaction Levy. As we are in the midst of updating the system to reflect this name change, please take note that you may still see FRC being used in our trading platform, statements, contract notes and advices. There are also no changes to the Transaction Levy rate.
