Hong Kong has emerged as a prominent player in the virtual asset market, bolstered by advantageous factors such as low tax rates, a transparent legal framework, and robust investor protection mechanisms. Hu Zhenbang, CFO of OSL Group, highlights <a href="https://coingape.com/hong-kong-to-debut-special-crypto-license-amid-low-tax-rate-advantage/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hong Kong’s appeal</a> to global investors due to its tax regime that does not levy asset value-added taxes, contrasting with jurisdictions like Japan and Australia. 
Hong Kong’s role as a financial hub further enhances its attractiveness, attracting international funds and benefiting from strong support from China. Moreover, Hong Kong’s banking sector’s favorable stance towards virtual assets sets it apart, with local banks more open compared to counterparts in Japan, facilitating a conducive environment for virtual asset institutions.
