What the work involves
An MPF intermediary's day includes explaining MPF schemes and fund choices to clients, comparing fees, helping complete and submit account-opening or transfer documents, and answering questions on contributions and benefits. They introduce investment options and risks in light of the client's situation and follow sales and disclosure rules to keep information accurate. With the roll-out of the eMPF Platform, intermediaries must also be familiar with digital processes and related administrative arrangements to help employers and employees adapt. This shift places more emphasis on explaining digital options clearly and helping clients use the platform with confidence.
The registration gate
Intermediaries fall into two types, principal and subsidiary, and both must register with the MPFA. A principal intermediary must be a Type A regulatee of an industry regulator in good standing and must designate at least one responsible officer. A subsidiary intermediary must be a Type B regulatee in good standing, attached to a principal intermediary, and pass a recognised examination. Registration must satisfy the relevant provisions of the MPFSO and ongoing requirements such as continuing training and notifying changes in information.
Examination and ongoing requirements
The MPFA-recognised examinations are run by the Vocational Training Council and the Hong Kong Securities and Investment Institute, covering the regulatory framework, key features of the MPF System, trustee functions, schemes and investments, ORSO–MPF interface arrangements, regulation of MPF intermediaries, the eMPF Platform and ESG. New applicants must pass the examination within one year before applying. The MPFA has compiled an examination syllabus and study notes to help candidates prepare. After registration, intermediaries must complete continuing training and pay annual fees and submit annual returns as required.
