HashKey Group has unveiled a one-stop Real-World Asset (RWA) issuance solution designed to accelerate Hong Kong’s bid to become a global RWA innovation powerhouse. The offering, launched through the company’s digital transformation arm, aims to make tokenization of high-quality assets a streamlined, compliant and investable channel for global capital.
HashKey Group’s new service, led by HashKey Tokenisation, stitches together institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure with a compliance-first design that responds to both the Hong Kong Digital Asset Development Policy Declaration 2.0 and recent PRC regulatory frameworks for asset tokenization. The result is a full-lifecycle platform that takes assets from due diligence and structuring through to distribution, custody and secondary-market access.
At the core of the solution is a compliance architecture tailored to meet the “same business, same risks, same rules” standard set out by the Securities and Futures Commission. That framework is complemented by HashKey’s technical stack, led by its Crypto-as-a-Service offering, which supports Nexatoken lifecycle management and RWA-compliant standards such as ERC-3643. The company says the system enables cross-chain interoperability with HashKey Chain and other mainstream networks while ensuring transparency and traceability through immutable on-chain records.
Accelerating Asset Tokenization
The group also links issuance to liquidity. Institutional and retail investors can gain primary market access and, where regulatory approvals are in place, trade tokenized assets on secondary venues through HashKey Exchange. The exchange supports both Central Limit Order Book and over-the-counter trading models and is designed to work with instant Delivery versus Payment (DVP) settlement to reduce counterparty risk and speed up transaction finality.
Beyond technology and trading, the one-stop solution emphasizes standardized disclosure and ongoing monitoring, signaling an effort to build investor protections and market integrity into tokenized product lifecycles. HashKey is positioning the platform as a service not only for corporate issuers and financial institutions that want to unlock illiquid assets, but also for professional intermediaries, law firms, auditors and brokers, that will use the infrastructure to deliver tech-enabled services to clients.
HashKey is explicit about why it chose Hong Kong as the focal point for the push. The company points to the city’s legal certainty, deep pools of capital, including family offices and institutional funds, and a dense web of professional services as a unique combination that enables cross-border value flows. Hong Kong, HashKey argues, can act as a “super-connector” for tokenized assets seeking global distribution.
“RWA is the essential bridge to the future of finance,” says Dr. Xiao Feng. “Our one-stop solution leverages Hong Kong’s unique institutional strengths to build a high-efficiency channel for asset tokenization. We are committed to working with global partners to establish Hong Kong as the world’s premier RWA innovation hub.”
The group’s messaging highlights its global licensing footprint, including licences in Singapore, Japan, Bermuda and Dubai, and its status as an HKEX-listed entity as elements that bolster transparency and trust. HashKey also points to several RWA benchmark projects it has completed across funds, bonds and supply-chain finance as proof points for its technical and compliance capabilities.
Acknowledging the particular legal features of PRC onshore assets, HashKey said it will maintain close communication with mainland regulators and only proceed when statutory filings or approvals (if required) are obtained, aiming to provide compliant channels for cross-border issuance and trading. People’s Republic of China-related issuers, the company noted, will be handled with special attention to local rules.
To accompany the public launch, HashKey Tokenisation will release an RWA One-Stop Issuance Service Manual and a guidance book, resources intended to help market participants navigate issuance, compliance and post-issuance obligations. With regulatory focus on tokenization growing globally, HashKey’s integrated approach underscores a broader industry push to turn real-world assets into accessible, regulated digital securities.
