According to a press release from the Hong Kong government, the Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Christopher Hui, stated that they are jointly advancing the study on the applicability of existing legislation to tokenized bonds, in order to promote the adoption of tokenization technology in Hong Kong's bond market. Details will be announced in the first half of next year.
