Hong Kong Finalizes Stablecoin Regulatory Framework

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has announced its implementation of a strict regulatory framework for stablecoins starting August 1, 2025.

MAGA

The new rules could reshape Hong Kong’s crypto landscape, impacting stablecoin usage and benefiting well-capitalized entities. Market consolidation and compliance challenges are expected.

Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has finalized its Stablecoins Ordinance, effective August 2025, with a mandatory licensing system for fiat-referenced stablecoin issuers. This framework emerges amid global trends emphasizing financial stability.

The HKMA manages this regulatory change, after the Hong Kong Legislative Council’s approval. It aims to enforce compliance and market stability, with no specific official leading communications as of late July 2025.

The ordinance will affect several cryptocurrencies, causing shifts in the over-the-counter (OTC) markets. Stablecoins like USDT and USDC and other related digital assets face scrutiny and changes in licensing requirements.

Implications extend to compliance costs, particularly in reserve management and anti-money laundering efforts. This new landscape could favor larger financial institutions over smaller market entrants.

Market responses include potential consolidations among fintech operators. The new licensing criteria sets a high compliance threshold, expected to reshape industry’s regulatory environment.

Lessons from Singapore and the EU suggest increased institutional engagement but reduced participation from non-compliant entities. The ordinance may pressure local OTC markets to adapt or exit, similar to global precedents. “As the regulatory regime comes into effect, market participants are advised to observe the Stablecoins Ordinance and the relevant guidelines. … It is an offence under the Stablecoins Ordinance to falsely claim oneself as a licensee or an applicant.” — HKMA Press Release, July 29, 2025
