Standard Chartered Hong Kong to Launch Virtual Asset ETF Trading Service

A recent survey by Standard Chartered Hong Kong, part of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s ‘Digital Hong Kong Dollar+’ project, reveals strong interest in digital assets from high-net-worth individuals. The survey found that 75% of respondents expressed a desire to engage in digital asset investment activities within the next year. Ho Man-chun, Head of Wealth Solutions at Standard Chartered Hong Kong, announced the bank’s plan to launch a virtual asset ETF trading service in November. This service will provide clients with greater flexibility and diversification when allocating their investments through Standard Chartered’s platform.
