The Butterworths Hong Kong Company Law Handbook - 26th Edition aims to deal with the intricacies of the Companies Ordinance (Cap 622) in an easily accessible form. This Handbook reproduces the text of the Ordinance as currently in force along with section by section annotations and examines the significant judicial decisions and rules of court. The annotations also provide definitions of words and phrases, discussions on practical aspects and contentious issues with reference to each section and other authoritative materials including cross-jurisdictional references. 

As this series has been cited with authority in over one hundred court cases in the Hong Kong Court of First Instance, Court of Appeal and Court of Final Appeal, this Handbook will no doubt be an invaluable source of information for practitioners, legal advisers, company secretaries, students and anyone interested in the laws governing companies in Hong Kong.

1. New cases on the interpretation and application of the National Security Law;
2. Updates to sanctions in relation to the Taliban, Isil & Al-Qaida;
3. The Hong Kong extradition case of Ramanjit Singh concerning treaty interpretation and refusal of surrender on account of political and religious beliefs;
