Brian Stevenson spent most of his working life immersed in company accounts, but in retirement he spends most of his time absorbed in community work.
He has been appointed to many advisory committees, giving advice on taxation, public affairs, and regulatory and corporate governance issues, and became a club steward in 1999 before becoming chairman in 2010.
"I wanted to continue my work for the community and charity purposes," he said.
The Jockey Club was a good way to realise that goal, with much of its income channelled back to the community through charitable donations and community works.
The club is the city's only licensed operator of horse racing, soccer betting, and the Mark Six lottery. It's also Hong Kong's biggest taxpayer and community benefactor.
