We note that your disclosure on page 61 says interest income generated from margin financing increased year-over-year because of an increase
in the number of customers utilizing the margin financing services and the increase in size of such margin financings. Page 64 also says
that more customers utilized margin financing limits granted to them in 2022 versus 2021. However, your disclosure on page 68 says that
the amount of margin lending to customers declined year-over-year because customers were utilizing a lesser portion of the margin limit

In response to this comment, the Company has reconciled and clarified these statements with amendments to the Registration Statement
on pages 61, 64, and 68. As explained in the amended disclosures, interest income generated from margin financing margin is based on
the loan sizes utilized by the customers throughout the year, instead of the balances of loans to customers as of the ending date of
the year. Therefore, interest income for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased with the loan size utilized by the customers throughout
the year, while the amount of margin lending to customers decreased as of December 31, 2022 when compared to the amount as of December
31, 2021.</FONT></P>

expense of HK$1,311,000 paid to external brokers and commission income of HK$1,311,000 received from IPO securities issuers were previously
reported on a gross basis. External brokers requested that the Company arrange IPO subscription for the external brokers&rsquo;
customers on behalf of the external brokers. Under this arrangement, the Company acted as an agent to provide securities brokerage
services to the external brokers for IPO subscriptions and agreed to remit to the external brokers any rebates from IPO securities issuers
for successful allocation of IPO shares. The Company previously misclassified rebates as commission income in the statements of income
and comprehensive income. The Company believes that the rebates pass-through the Company from the securities issuers to the external
brokers. These amounts have no impact on the income statement because rebates are neither income nor expense for the Company and are
unrelated to the Company&rsquo;s operations. Under the arrangement, the Company only received IPO subscription handling fee from
external brokers.</FONT></P>

rebates received (which are included in commission income) and commission expense should be presented net. The commission expense is
revised to reflect the revenue net of commission income. Therefore, the securities brokerage commissions and commission expenses for
the year ended December 31, 2021 have both decreased by HK$1,311,000 on the income and comprehensive income statements. There was no
other impact on the consolidated financial statements saved as above. </FONT></P>

Company has previously erroneously disclosed that there is no variable consideration in the transaction price of securities brokerage,

it is determined that there is variable consideration in the transaction price for securities brokerage, underwriting, and placing services.
The disclosure is revised to include variable consideration for securities brokerage, underwriting, and placing services in the contract&rsquo;s
consideration. No quantitative adjustment was made because the identified variable consideration has no impact on the timing of revenue
recognition or amount of revenue recognized.</FONT></P>

Company has previously erroneously disclosed that the Company acted as an agent in underwriting services. The Company is obligated to
take up the unsubscribed shares up to the maximum underwriting commitment in the event of undersubscription of the offered securities
as stated in the contract. Based on the principal or agent analysis detailed in response to Comment No. 24 in the prior comment letter,
the Company concluded that it acts as a principal in the provision of underwriting services. No quantitative adjustment was made, as
the amount of revenue recognized would be the same on a gross or net basis because the Company did not incur direct costs such as legal
fees, traveling, marketing, and other expenses related to underwriting revenue. There is no balance sheet impact from the change to underwriting
activity to principal conclusion.</FONT></P>
