HONG KONG, July 2, 2025 —— 領先的香港持牌虛擬資產交易平台 (Virtual Asset Trading Platform，VATP) DigiFT, a next-generation platform purpose-built for institutional-grade, tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), has successfully obtained Type 1 and Type 4 licenses from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC). This positions DigiFT among the first licensed platforms in Hong Kong focused on the compliant distribution and advisory of tokenized securities via smart contract-enabled infrastructure.
With the Type 1 license (Dealing in Securities), DigiFT will offer regulated access to tokenized RWAs for institutional and professional investors in Hong Kong. The Type 4 license (Advising on Securities) will enable the firm to provide compliant investment advisory services in the digital securities space—further bridging traditional capital markets with on-chain infrastructure.
This milestone builds on DigiFT’s foundation in Asia, where the company has been licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) since 2023. With dual-licensing from two of the region’s most respected financial jurisdictions, DigiFT is now among the most comprehensively regulated platforms for institutional-grade, tokenized RWAs in Asia—spanning compliant product structuring, issuance, and liquidity provision in Singapore to regulated distribution and advisory in Hong Kong.
“Securing the Hong Kong SFC licenses marks a significant step in our mission to build a globally connected, compliant, and scalable digital asset marketplace,” said DigiFT 创始人兼 CEO Henry Zhang. “This authorization reinforces institutional trust in tokenized finance and brings us closer to enabling an open, on-chain economy—where real-world assets move seamlessly across jurisdictions, platforms, and participants.”
This announcement comes as Hong Kong accelerates its efforts to become a global hub for virtual assets—underscored by regulatory developments such as the Stablecoin Bill passed in May 2025, which introduced a licensing regime for fiat-referenced stablecoins and reinforced the city’s commitment to digital asset innovation.
“We’re proud to be not just among the first licensed distribution platforms for tokenized RWAs in Hong Kong, but also the first to be built on smart contract-enabled infrastructure,” said Kevin Loo, CEO of DigiFT Hong Kong. “Backed by regulatory approvals in both Hong Kong and Singapore—and trusted by global institutional partners—DigiFT is uniquely positioned to meet growing demand for tokenized assets securely, transparently, and at scale, on-chain.”

香港，2025年7月2日 —— 數碼資產平台 DigiFT 專注於機構級實體資產代幣化（Real-World Assets，RWA），現已正式獲得香港證券及期貨事務監察委員會（SFC）頒發第 1 類（證券交易）及第 4 類（就證券提供意見）牌照。DigiFT 成為少數採用智能合約驅動鏈上基礎設施、並獲發相關牌照的數碼資產公司之一，現可在香港合規分銷及就代幣化證券提供投資建議。
獲得第 1 類牌照後，DigiFT 可為香港的機構及專業投資者提供合規的代幣化 RWA 交易服務。第 4 類牌照則允許 DigiFT 在數碼證券領域提供合規的投資顧問服務，進一步實現傳統金融市場與鏈上基礎設施之間的融合。
這一成就鞏固了 DigiFT 在亞洲的合規基礎。DigiFT 自 2023 年起已獲新加坡金融管理局 (MAS) 發牌，現已於亞洲兩個最具公信力的金融司法管轄區獲得雙重牌照，成為區內最全面合規的機構級 RWA 供應商之一。這項雙重監管資格涵蓋了從新加坡的合規產品結構設計、發行及流動性提供，到香港的受監管分銷與投資顧問服務，實現兩大金融樞紐之間的無縫銜接。
DigiFT 創辦人兼首席執行官 Henry Zhang 表示：「獲得香港證監會的相關牌照，標誌著我們實現構建全球互聯、合規且可擴展的數碼資產市場目標邁出重要一步。此舉進一步強化機構投資者對代幣化金融的信任，並加速我們實現開放鏈上經濟體系的願景——讓實體資產能於不同司法管轄區、平台與參與者之間無縫流通。」
是次宣佈正值香港積極發展虛擬資產中心的時機。早前於 2025 年 5 月通過的《穩定幣法案》，引入法定參照穩定幣的發牌制度，進一步體現香港對數碼資產創新的承諾。
DigiFT香港首席執行官 Kevin Loo 補充：「我們不僅是香港首批獲發代幣化 RWA 分銷牌照的平台，更是唯一以智能合約技術構建的合規分銷基礎設施之一。在香港與新加坡雙重監管授權支持下，並深受環球機構夥伴信任，DigiFT 將繼續安全、透明且具規模地為市場提供機構級 RWA 接入服務。」
