[CPD Talk] ListCo Disputes: Parties, Perspectives, and Playbook

Navigating listed company (ListCo) disputes requires far more than courtroom tactics—it demands balancing corporate control with strict regulatory compliance.

This CPD session delivers a concise, multi-perspective breakdown of ListCo Disputes: Parties, Perspectives, and Playbook. Moving beyond standard corporate litigation, our speakers will explore real-world power struggles between shareholders, boards, lenders, and liquidators, unpacking key tactical maneuvers like EGM requisitions, injunctions, and provisional liquidations. Attendees will gain actionable strategies for handling high-stakes regulatory hurdles—including trade suspensions and Stock Exchange requisitions—while mastering the core 4 “C”s Framework: Control, Compliance, Cost-efficiency, and Cross-Border execution.

We are pleased to welcome guest speakers Roy Leung (Managing Partner) and Mathew Liu (Partner) from Sit, Fung, Kwong & Shum, together with Anson Wong Yu Yat, to share essential insights and practical guidance for both legal practitioners and corporate stakeholders.
