Because the appellant is impecunious and the respondent demonstrated a real risk of undue delay and expense in enforcing any costs order, and because the appellant's asserted countervailing factors (merits, set-off, and delay) were insufficient, the court exercised its discretion to order security for costs on appeal in the sum of HKD 450,000.
