The Securities and Futures Commission is to release circulars on intermediaries who engage in tokenized securities-related activities, while the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Financial Services, and Treasury Bureau will issue further joint consultations on regulatory regimes for stablecoin issuers. 
Tokenized Bonds and the Future of Tokenization 
According to Eddie Yue, chief executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), tokenized bonds have already moved beyond the proof-of-concept stage and have been used in real transactions. The government is now talking with the industry to explore the next tokenized issuance. As tokenization becomes more popular, consumers can expect a rise in the tokenization of differences, blockchain-based payment methods, as well as stablecoin wallets or tokenized deposits offered by banks. 
However, new risks associated with innovative technology must also be addressed, said Julia Leung, CEO of the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), adding that a circular explaining how to recognize risks and what regulators expect from intermediaries will be issued soon.
