The company said the framework came into effect on <strong>May 6<\/strong> after board approval and was developed to meet corporate governance requirements under Hong Kong listing rules. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The manual sets out procedures covering disclosure requirements, financial supervision, compliance processes and internal risk controls. The new controls include procedures for handling disclosure matters and establish review mechanisms for large transactions and connected-party dealings. It also includes multi-stage approval processes intended to strengthen accountability and reduce operational exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The framework outlines the responsibilities of the board, management, audit committee and staff in maintaining internal control standards. It also incorporates whistle-blowing procedures, internal audit functions and ongoing risk assessment measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Century Entertainment said the controls are designed to support accurate financial reporting, improve operational processes and safeguard company assets while protecting shareholder interests. It said implementation will be reviewed on an ongoing basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trading in the company&#8217;s shares remains suspended, a halt that has been in place since <strong>June 26, 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"see-also-container\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"see-also-label\">See also:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"related-article\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"related-article__thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/focusgn.com\/asia-pacific\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/10\/business-handshake-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"related-article__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"see-also-label-strong\">See also:<\/span> <a href='https:\/\/focusgn.com\/asia-pacific\/century-entertainment-brings-back-ng-man-sun-as-chairman'>Ng Man Sun returns to chairmanship of Century Entertainment<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The manual sets out procedures covering disclosure requirements, financial supervision, compliance processes and internal risk controls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2395,"featured_media":777039955,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"is_press_release":false,"is_interview":false,"is_opinion":false,"focusai_summary":"Century Entertainment International has implemented a new Internal Control Manual to enhance corporate governance, risk management, and compliance, aligning with Hong Kong listing rules.
