Tom Atkinson, the former head of enforcement at the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC), is staying in Hong Kong for another three years.

Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) announced Friday that Atkinson has been given a new three-year term as executive director of its enforcement division, effective May 3.

Atkinson first moved to the SFC from the OSC back in 2016.

“Tom has made valuable contribution to the SFC since he joined the commission three years ago and I am confident that he will continue to bring the same dedication and commitment to the commission in his new term,” said Ashley Alder, CEO of the SFC, in a statement accompanying the announcement.
