Applying the balancing exercise the judge concluded the plaintiff did not demonstrate a high degree of probability of success, delay by defendant was not sufficiently prejudicial, and evidence did not satisfy the court that the plaintiff (through its parent/backers) could not raise funds so as to make security likely to stifle the claim; accordingly security for costs in the sum previously ordered (HK$660,000) was justified and the appeal was dismissed.
