This may be the William Hunt who founded the company with the same name in Tianjin in the 1920s or 30s and which moved down to Hong Kong after 1949. The firm of William Hunt had close ties to the KMT government and did well from tea exports to the USA. The company was still active in Hong Kong into the 1980s (particularly selling construction machinery), in fact I worked there for a couple of years, but I believe it no longer exists.

William Hunt
I don't see him in the 1940 Jurors List.
Tony Banham lists him as:
Hunt, W.P. 40, US, Company Dir. 114 The Peak TKH
The Companies Registry lists seven companies that include "William Hunt" in the name, see https://www.icris.cr.gov.hk/csci/search_company_name.do:
