HKMA Stablecoin Framework Announcement

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority finalized its stablecoin regulatory framework, the Stablecoins Ordinance, effective August 1, 2025, requiring issuers targeting Hong Kong to secure a license.

The ordinance aims to enhance market integrity and consumer protection, impacting smaller crypto entities without licenses, potentially strengthening Hong Kong’s global cryptocurrency standing.

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) finalized its stablecoin regulatory framework, effective from August 2025. This ordinance requires stablecoin issuers targeting Hong Kong to secure a license from the HKMA, enhancing regulatory oversight.

Hong Kong’s Legislative Council passed the framework, aiming to regulate stablecoin issuers with licensing and compliance enforcement. The HKMA announced that no licenses have been issued yet, advising the public to consult the register for licensed issuers.

The framework may impact smaller OTC crypto shops unable to meet compliance. Some may exit or merge with compliant entities. Licensed operations are expected to increase market integrity and consumer protection in Hong Kong. “Smaller OTC shops may find it increasingly difficult to operate under the new licensing requirements which may lead to market consolidation,” said a regulatory expert.

Financial implications include changes in stablecoin flows around Hong Kong exchanges. Despite the new regulations, no major on-chain fluctuations, like TVL changes or liquidity shifts, have been observed as of the announcement date.

Historically, regulatory frameworks like this lead to consolidation in the stablecoin market. The EU’s MiCA and Singapore’s stablecoin regime have shown similar trends, affecting issuers before extending to DeFi protocols extensively used in regulated areas.

Stablecoin issuers, such as those backing USDT and USDC, might face compliance challenges similar to previous global cases. Market leaders and regulators are watching if Hong Kong’s approach influences crypto policies elsewhere.
