Compares the takeover defence regulations of the three jurisdictions, highlights key areas of similarity, and identifies the ways in which the UK helped to develop Hong Kong's regulatory regime for securities. Explains how Hong Kong and China collaborated in securities regulation, including their co-operation over the issue of Chinese H shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
