ORSO Schemes at a Glance

ORSO Schemes and your business

The Occupational Retirement Schemes Ordinance (“ORSO”) came into effect on October 15, 1993, before the introduction of the current MPF system. It is the governing legislation for the regulation of voluntary occupational retirement schemes operating in or from Hong Kong. It offers two categories of retirement plans: defined contribution schemes and defined benefit schemes. Often such plans are used by businesses in Hong Kong to enhance employee recruitment and retention.
