Hong Kong Menkul Kıymetler ve Vadeli İşlemler Birliği başkanı, Hong Kong'un sanal varlık piyasasını anakara sakinlerinin katılımı üzerindeki kısıtlamaları gevşetmeye çağırdı

Hong Kong Securities and Futures Professional Association President Chen Zhihua proposed six key areas for Hong Kong to enhance the virtual asset field, including: 1. Relaxing the participation restrictions on mainland residents: allowing more mainland residents to participate in Hong Kong’s virtual asset market, which will bring in a large amount of funds and technology, enhance market liquidity and liquidity, and expand Hong Kong’s influence as a financial center. 2. Improving the regulatory system: It is necessary to evaluate and adjust the regulatory framework to better adapt to the unique operating mode and rapid changes of the virtual asset industry. This may include introducing more flexible and innovative regulatory methods, reducing unnecessary compliance burdens, while maintaining high-level risk control. 3. Simplifying the licensing process: Speeding up the approval process for virtual asset platform licenses, providing clear schedules, industry-standard requirements, clearer guidelines, and transparent application processes to attract more international participants. This can be achieved by introducing an electronic application system and increasing the number of competent reviewers. 4. Establish a unified regulatory agency: consider establishing a unified virtual asset regulatory committee responsible for coordinating the work of different regulatory agencies, ensuring the consistency and effectiveness of regulatory standards, reducing compliance costs for enterprises and improving regulatory efficiency. 5. Strengthen cooperation with the mainland: The SAR government should closely cooperate with relevant regulatory agencies in the mainland to explore collaborative mechanisms for virtual asset regulation, promote mutual market connectivity and two-way flow of funds. 6. Introducing more professional knowledge and industry experience: Introducing more professional knowledge and industry experience in the regulatory process, hiring industry experts to participate in regulatory and approval work, ensuring that the regulatory process is rigorous and efficient, and that regulatory frameworks and requirements do not deviate from industry common practices. At the same time, more new products should be developed, such as real-world assets (RWA). To complement the announcement in the Policy Address that a gold depository and related trading facilities will be established, gold RWA can be developed as one of the virtual assets.
