Hong Kong launches the RWA Bridge program to promote the integration of Web3 and TradFi.

On July 3, 2025, a forum focusing on Hong Kong's new policies was held in Causeway Bay. The event attracted numerous individuals from the political, financial, and technological sectors to discuss the potential opportunities for the integration of TradFi and Decentralized Finance, while following the development of digitalization of real-world assets.

The event focuses on Hong Kong's latest digital asset policy framework, discussing how it paves the way for financial innovation while balancing compliance and technological development, enhancing Hong Kong's status as a global asset tokenization center. Wu Jiezhuang, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of the Hong Kong Legislative Council's Web3 and Virtual Assets Development Subcommittee, stated in his speech that the SAR government is accelerating the promotion of a new digital asset policy declaration, actively attracting international funds and innovative platforms through improved regulations and financial technology infrastructure. He emphasized that "compliance as the foundation, innovation as the driving force" will be the core principle for Hong Kong's future development in Web3.

During the roundtable forum, participants discussed the role and limitations of stablecoins in promoting RWA liquidity, pointing out that the technological integration and regulatory uncertainty faced by traditional institutions remain major challenges. The attendees unanimously agreed that the price stability of stablecoins could serve as the foundation for cross-market transactions of RWA, but to attract more participation from TradFi, it is necessary to unify technical standards and clarify regulatory pathways.

During the forum, the organizers announced the official launch of the "RWA Bridge Program," which focuses on building a bridge between TradFi and Web3, assisting financial institutions in entering the world of on-chain assets. The program will provide funding, technical tools, and compliance guidance to startups, promote asset tokenization, and drive the practical application of RWA categories such as private credit, US Treasuries, and alternative assets.

An executive from a blockchain infrastructure company stated that they will continue to invest in building the connection infrastructure between traditional assets and blockchain networks. The RWA asset management system developed by the company has already served several international institutions and has engaged in communication with the U.S. SEC's Crypto Task Force to promote the compliant development of digital assets and RWA.

The company also plans to launch an institutional-level RWA trading platform in Hong Kong, with infrastructure already in collaboration with several well-known financial institutions. They will participate in the upcoming "Digital Asset Regulatory Sandbox" pilot program to assist the local ecosystem in aligning with international standards, further consolidating Hong Kong's leading position in the RWA field.

The event attracted over 300 industry representatives, leading to multiple potential cooperation intentions on site. With the comprehensive promotion of Hong Kong's new digital asset policy, the organizers stated that they will join hands with more industry partners to accelerate the integration of TradFi and the blockchain ecosystem, helping Hong Kong seize the high ground in the global Web3 competition.
