- DCCJ1068/2022
The counterclaim was struck out because, as a matter of statutory construction and public policy, the Banking Ordinance and the cited HKMA guidance and regulatory materials do not confer private causes of action on individual customers; the PDPO allegation caused no compensable damage on the pleaded evidence; and the reliefs sought are legally non‑viable, making the counterclaim plainly unarguable.
