Laura Cha has a rare claim to fame: she is the only person to have worked at a top level in the securities regulators of both Hong Kong and China.

She started out at the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) in 1991, when the regulator was still trying to rebuild Hong Kong’s market after the 1987 crash. 

“Hong Kong was basically a local domestic stock market,” she says.
