Hong Kong Chief Executive's Policy Address Seminar on Digital Finance: Shifting from Financial Innovation to Serving the Real Economy and Promoting High-quality Financial Development
BlockBeats News, February 9th. According to Sing Tao Daily, the Hong Kong Chief Executive's Policy Committee held a digital finance symposium on February 8, 2026. Participants included the Chinese People's Bank Financial Research Institute research team, the Round Coin Technology Board of Directors Chairman, Web 3.0 Development Task Force members, and former HKMA Chief Executive Norman Chan, among other experts. The meeting discussed how Hong Kong can support the national goal of becoming a "financial powerhouse" through the high-quality development of digital finance. The key areas of discussion were digital finance application scenarios, balancing regulation and innovative development, and connecting with the Mainland's digital financial infrastructure to achieve coordinated development.
Chief Executive Policy Committee Chief Huang Yuanshan stated that Hong Kong should seize the digitalization trend to support the goal of a financial powerhouse through promoting high-quality financial development. Hong Kong has advantages in technological infrastructure, a vibrant market, and a favorable policy environment. The application of digital finance should shift from financial innovation to serving the real economy, such as promoting asset tokenization to include real-world assets like precious metals, renewable energy, addressing issues such as poor liquidity and complex transactions in traditional assets.
