Hong Kong Banking Association Welcomes New Fiscal Budget Measures

According to Odaily, the Hong Kong Banking Association has expressed support for the new measures proposed in the latest fiscal budget. The association believes these measures will promote market diversification and identify new growth opportunities, providing fresh momentum for the local economy. As the Hong Kong government prepares to release its second policy statement on virtual asset development and introduce a regulatory framework for fiat-backed stablecoin issuers, the association sees this as a step towards enhancing the virtual asset ecosystem. The industry is expected to explore the potential value of digital asset technology while balancing risk management and business development, contributing to Hong Kong's ambition to become a global digital asset hub.
