Elisa Ng Says Hong Kong Tokenization Is Moving Toward Commercial Use

Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) Executive Director Elisa Ng said the city’s tokenization effort is moving from trials toward commercial use, with links among investment products, digital currencies and financial infrastructure central to broader practical applications.

Ng spoke at a Nov. 11 seminar co-hosted by the SFC and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA). Approximately 200 financial industry practitioners attended.

The seminar focused on Project Ensemble and tokenized investment products authorized by the SFC. Banks and industry participants shared practical experience during the event.

HKMA Executive Director (Financial Infrastructure) Nelson Chow said the authority would continue working closely with the SFC to promote responsible innovation in tokenization.
