In view of the recently rapid spread of the novel coronavirus epidemic in Hong Kong and worldwide, if a SFC licensed corporation is not able to finalise its audited accounts and compliance report for the year ended 31st December 2019 with its auditors for filing with the SFC before 30th April 2020, the SFC licensed corporation has a duty to apply to the SFC as soon as possible for a time extension to file them with the SFC later, albeit subject to the SFC's review and approval.
