Global law firm Clyde & Co has appointed Patrick Peng as head of corporate for Greater China.
Prior to his current role, Mr Peng served as general counsel (acting) at the Hong Kong Insurance Authority. He brings a unique perspective, having guided the development of the regulatory framework as a senior official and represented financial institutions in private practice.
During his more than eight years with the Hong Kong Insurance Authority, Mr Peng was instrumental in the creation of several pioneering regulatory regimes. His work included key contributions to Hong Kong’s captive domicile, insurance-linked securities, risk-based capital, group-wide supervision, and company re-domiciliation frameworks. His deep experience with the regulatory process spans life and non-life (re)insurance, corporate governance, licensing, market conduct, and policy development.
