After comparing with relevant laws in the EU, UK, USA, Hong Kong, and Singapore, this article argues that there are certain points worth further consideration and revision under Taiwan law: first, the level of current regulation in Taiwan and its scope are rather limited compared with foreign laws; secondly, it is necessary to introduce other standards than mere ‘total assets’ in order to determine a ‘large’ enterprise; and thirdly, current Taiwan law fails to cover unincorporated business undertakings and arguably stretch too far for non-business entities. These points worth legislators and regulators to consider in the future to complete conduct of business rules for financial firms in Taiwan.zhjournal article38209880
