According to media reports, at an office in K11 Atelier Victoria Dockside in Tsim Sha Tsui, a 35-year-old male shareholder surnamed Wong discovered since January this year that funds in the companys account were insufficient, resulting in repeated delays in staff salaries and client commissions. After investigation, it was found that a 53-year-old female chief executive officer surnamed Ho had, without authorization, transferred approximately HKD43 million from the companys bank account into her personal account. Ho is the CEO of a wealth management company, which is also a licensed insurance brokerage firm in Hong Kong. The arrested individual was responsible for managing the companys bank accounts. Until yesterday evening (13th), after questioning, the female CEO admitted to taking the companys funds, prompting shareholder Wong to report the case to the police. Police stated that at 6:42 pm yesterday, officers received a report from an employee of a company at 30 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, alleging that a 53-year-old woman surnamed Ho had stolen money from a company located at 18 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui. The case was initially handled by the Wan Chai District crime squad, and Ho was arrested on suspicion of theft. She is currently being detained for investigation. The case has subsequently been transferred to the Yau Tsim District crime squad Team 3 for follow-up. Preliminary findings suggest that a substantial sum was transferred out via bank transactions. Police are investigating the relationship between the two companies and the destination of the misappropriated funds.
