Current regulatory features of money lending business in Hong Kong

The current regulation of money lending business in Hong Kong has a certain self-regulatory nature,There is currently no dedicated statutory body that continuously supervises the day-to-day business operations of licensed money lenders。The police usually only charge moneylenders if the interest rate exceeds the legal limit.,Or intervene in investigations when suspected illegal activities such as collecting debts by illegal means occur,Therefore, the continuous supervision over the business operations of licensees is relatively limited.。
