The Hang Seng Gold ETF, recently listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, is set to expand its distribution channels by exploring licensed digital asset trading platforms. This move, announced by Christopher Hui, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of Hong Kong, was revealed at the 19th Asian Financial Forum. The ETF, which allows individual investors to redeem physical gold directly from banks, aims to broaden its accessibility. Li Peishan, Director and CEO of Hang Seng Investment Management, stated that a tokenized unlisted class of the ETF is in the final testing phase, with a launch expected in the first quarter of 2026. This new class will be available to retail investors with a lower entry fee, although it will not offer physical gold redemption and will be denominated in US dollars.
