The MOU clarifies the arrangements and procedures for share issuance and listing, cross-boundary enforcement, supervision of intermediaries, and exchange of information between the CSRC and the SFC. The MOU will facilitate the CSRC and the SFC in discharging their supervisory functions, jointly combating cross-boundary offences and misconduct, safeguarding the legitimate interests of investors and ensuring the steady and healthy development of both markets.
