The Hong Kong Monetary Authority ("HKMA") unveiled 'Fintech 2030' during the Hong Kong FinTech Week 2025, celebrating the tenth anniversary of the event. The 'Fintech 2030' strategy is aimed at positioning Hong Kong as a leading fintech hub by focusing on four strategic pillars: 'DART'.
The four pillars of the 'DART' strategy are designed to create a robust fintech ecosystem in Hong Kong.
- Creating Next-Generation Infrastructure: The strategy seeks to build advanced data and payment infrastructure that will facilitate secure data sharing, streamlined cross-border payments, and personalized financial services.
- AI Integration: The 'Artificial Intelligence x Authorized Institutions' ("AI2") Strategy is designed to promote the adoption of AI and develop finance-specific AI models, thereby enhancing banking services and maintaining transparency.
- Enhancing Resilience: The strategy emphasizes strengthening cybersecurity and preparing for the quantum finance era with post-quantum cryptography to bolster business, technology, and quantum resilience.
- Tokenization Ecosystem: The strategy aims to foster a thriving tokenization ecosystem by tokenizing real-world assets, leading with tokenized government bonds, and exploring the tokenization of Exchange Fund papers. The HKMA will also launch the Project Ensemble pilot for real-value transactions.
The HKMA underscores the importance of collaboration between the public and private sectors, as well as across borders, to achieve these objectives and push the boundaries of a sustainable and inclusive fintech ecosystem.
