On 17 September 2024, the Hong Kong Academy of Finance (AoF) and the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) hosted a high level seminar on “Innovation and Oversight: balancing growth and risks in financial regulation”.
The seminar, in the format of a fireside chat between Mr Ian Johnston, Chief Executive of the DFSA and Mr Norman Chan, Senior Adviser of AoF and former Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, touched on the role of the DFSA in supporting the growth of the Dubai International Financial Centre, innovation in financial market and global regulatory trends, and the growing connectivity and cooperation between Asia and the Middle East. As a seasoned regulator, Mr Johnston also shared his insights into various regulatory issues, and the DFSA’s approach to balancing risks in financial regulation and supporting growth and innovation.
