He also expressed expectations of robust demand for their offerings, given the growing adoption of ETFs in institutional asset allocation and retail trading in Hong Kong.
ChinaAMC and Harvest Global Investments, whose ETFs were among those approved, have confirmed that they will be utilizing digital asset platform OSL as their “sub-custodian partner.”
OSL stated that the conditional approval signifies substantial completion of the regulatory vetting process and that they are working intensively to ensure a smooth launch.
While it remains uncertain whether investors from mainland China will be able to purchase these ETFs, the potential entry of up to $25 billion into the market is noteworthy.
