Julia Leung, CEO of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), is anticipated to be re-elected for another three-year term, according to sources cited by Bloomberg. Leung, who assumed the role on January 1, 2023, has been instrumental in implementing a licensing system for virtual asset trading platforms and developing a virtual asset roadmap. Her tenure has been marked by a supportive stance towards the digital asset industry, emphasizing a regulatory approach of "same business, same risks, same rules" to include crypto trading and custodial services under regulatory oversight. The Hong Kong government and SFC have not officially commented on the reappointment speculation.
