The court found, between April 2011 and September 2012, Lum, then working as a relationship manager at Credit Suisse AG Hong Kong branch, misappropriated approximately HK$31m ($4m, £23.m) on seven occasions from three client accounts, either by deceiving the client to obtain written instructions or by forging client signatures on relevant payment instructions
Following the case, the Securities and Futures Commission said it had decided “Lum is not a fit and proper person as a result of her conviction”. The case was referred to the SFC by Hong Kong’s central bank the Monetary Authority.
