Hong Kong Sees a Quarter of Broad Market Growth, Firmer Ties and

Regulatory Progress: SFC’s Quarterly Report (2024/8/22)

The Hong Kong capital markets made encouraging, broad-based progress in the

second quarter of 2024 as reflected by an array of data on asset management, listing,

licensing and virtual assets, according to the Quarterly Report of the Securities and

Futures Commission (SFC) published today.

Among the notable developments for the quarter covering April-June, Hong

Kong-domiciled funds showed continued momentum with assets under management

(AUM) up 7% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) as of end-June and net fund inflows up 80%

QoQ for the quarter.

Another bright spot was the growth of licence applications received by the SFC,

which rose 3% QoQ and 8% year-on-year. New listing applications the SFC cleared

also increased 6% QoQ.

On the virtual assets (VA) front, Asia’s first batch of six VA spot ETFs listed in

Hong Kong have traded smoothly with a total market capitalisation of $2.4 billion

(US$310 million) as of mid-August. In addition, the SFC received 17 applications for

virtual asset trading platform (VATP) licences in the quarter.

“The latest quarterly data and continuing trends reaffirm the SFC’s strategic

approach, and we will build upon our accomplishments with steadfast commitment to

market connectivity, innovation, sustainability and, above all, integrity,” said Ms Julia

Leung, the SFC’s Chief Executive Officer. “Going forward, the SFC will continue

with its assiduous efforts to ensure Hong Kong’s capital markets remain competitive
