Hong Kong to Implement Stablecoin Licensing by 2025

Hong Kong’s government will enforce a Stablecoin Ordinance requiring issuer licensing from August 1, 2025, spearheaded by Christopher Hui.

Hong Kong’s Stablecoin Ordinance

Hong Kong will introduce a Stablecoin Ordinance that mandates licensing for all related issuers commencing August 1, 2025. Spearheaded by the local government, the regulation aims to enhance investor security in digital assets. Government Gazette Volume 29, No. 22 – May 21, 2025

Christopher Hui, the Secretary for Financial Services, oversees this initiative. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority facilitates consultations, highlighting anti-money laundering priorities. This move reflects a strategic policy shift in Hong Kong’s digital finance landscape.

Impact on the Industry

Industry experts predict increased institutional interest as new regulations present clearer operational guidelines. Licensed issuers are expected to benefit from robust investor confidence, potentially driving growth within Hong Kong’s digital currency sector.

“After the Ordinance commences operation, the licensing regime will provide suitable guardrails for relevant stablecoin activities. It will be a milestone in facilitating the sustainable development of the stablecoin and digital asset ecosystem in Hong Kong.” – Christopher Hui, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Hong Kong Government

The ordinance imposes significant changes, primarily affecting stablecoins pegged to the Hong Kong dollar. Market responses may vary, with well-capitalized firms likely adapting more easily to the stringent requirements. Draft Guideline on Licensing Supervision of Stablecoin Issuers

Challenges and Opportunities

Smaller projects or those with insufficient governance structures might struggle to comply. This could lead to reduced competition but potentially stronger market stability.

Data from similar regulatory environments suggest that HKD-backed stablecoins will experience increased flows, as compliant structures attract institutional investors. Hong Kong Government Announcement – June 6, 2025 Such shifts echo the stablecoin developments in the EU under MiCA.
