According to ChainCatcher, citing Hong Kong media Ming Pao, Standard Chartered Hong Kong recently conducted a survey under the Hong Kong Monetary Authority's "e-HKD+" project and found that three-quarters of high-end clients are interested in digital assets, and nearly 80% of respondents intend to participate in digital asset investment activities in the next 12 months.
Ho Man Chun, Head of Wealth Solutions at Standard Chartered Hong Kong, stated that the bank will launch virtual asset ETF trading services in November, allowing clients to participate in these emerging investments through the Standard Chartered platform, thereby diversifying clients' asset allocation and wealth management options.
