The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) on April 26, 2022, launched the Regtech Knowledge Hub to encourage greater sharing of Regtech adoption experience and expertise within the Regtech ecosystem in Hong Kong.
HKMA said in a press release: “The establishment of the Hub forms part of the HKMA’s two-year Regtech promotion roadmap announced in November 2020 to promote Regtech adoption.”

The Hub’s launch is accompanied by three innovative Regtech use cases. These include:
