Hong Kong Starts Building the Tokenized Bond Rulebook

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority announced on June 5, 2026 that it has convened a Tokenised Bond Expert Group to support wider adoption and scalability of tokenized bonds. The group’s membership spans banks, law firms, industry associations, market infrastructure and technology providers, with first discussions focused on how Hong Kong’s legal and regulatory regime applies to tokenized bond issuance and transactions. The system signal is that Hong Kong is treating tokenized bonds as future fixed-income plumbing, not a crypto side project.
