Hongkong vključuje CBDC v pettočkovno agendo za razvoj Fintech-a

Hongkong monetarna uprava (HKMA) si prizadeva za celovito prenovo fintecha za mesto, njeni načrti pa vključujejo digitalne valute centralne banke (CBDC). Vendar lažji dostop do kripto sredstev ni del dnevnega reda HKMA-jevega fintecha.

HKMA preučuje CBDC na drobno in na debelo

V sporočilo za javnost issued on Tuesday (June 8, 2021), the HKMA unveiled its “Fintech 2025” strategy with a five-point agenda that includes CBDCs. Concerning sovereign digital currencies, the HKMA announced its plans to expand its research into both retail and wholesale CBDC.

Odlomek iz objave se glasi:

“HKMA bo okrepila svoje raziskovalno delo za povečanje pripravljenosti Hongkonga pri izdaji CBDC na veleprodajni in maloprodajni ravni. Poleg nenehnih prizadevanj za CBDC na debelo HKMA sodeluje s Centrom za inovacije Hank Bank for International Settlements (BIS), da bi raziskal CBDC na drobno in bo začel študijo o e-HKD, da bi razumel primere uporabe, koristi, in s tem povezana tveganja. "

Poleg razvoja digitalnega hongkonškega dolarja (HKD) je mestna denarna uprava tudi izjavila, da bo še naprej sodelovala z Ljudsko banko Kitajske pri njenem projektu digitalnega juana.

Kot prej poročali by BTCMmanager, HKMA has announced that it is ready to expand cross-border trials of China’s digital yuan project. Indeed, both Hong Kong and China have been developing modalities to promote the utilization of the digital currency electronic payment project (DCEP) for both mainland and island residents since December 2020.

Back in September, the HKMA announced its sodelovanje with blockchain infrastructure firm ConsenSys for a cross-border CBDC pilot study. The project is examining an experimental sovereign digital currency for cross-border payments between Hong Kong and Singapore.

Fintech, ne kripto

Kripto-sredstva so očitno manjkala na HKMA-jevem finančnem načrtu, druge točke osredotočanja pa so pokrivale banke, ki so sprejele fintech in regulativne politike v podporo prizadevanjem za digitalno financiranje. Trdna podatkovna infrastruktura in razvoj usposobljene delovne sile, ki bo poskrbela za mestno fintech revolucijo, predstavljata tudi preostali del pet točk.

Recently, regulators in the city have moved to restrict crypto adoption in Hong Kong by planning to ban non-millionaires from trading cryptocurrencies. In February, some major crypto exchanges in the city panned the move saying it would be kontraproduktivno to Hong Kong’s emerging fintech developmental efforts.
