Hong Kong Monetary Authority Annual Report: Tokenized ecosystem is another key area of “Fintech 2030”

Odaily reports that the Hong Kong Monetary Authority has released its 2025 annual report. In the section outlining key priorities and outlook for 2026, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority stated it will continue to participate in international discussions and cooperation on digital asset policy, especially regarding the impact of stablecoin-related arrangements on monetary and financial stability to ensure the regulatory framework aligns more closely with international standards and best practices. In addition, another key focus area under “FinTech 2030” is to advance Hong Kong’s tokenization ecosystem, further promote the tokenization of real-world assets (including financial assets), and enable settlement of these assets on blockchain through new forms of digital currency such as the digital Hong Kong dollar, tokenized deposits, and regulated stablecoins, supporting faster and smoother financial transactions.
