Summary

Hong Kong, April 20, 2026 – HashKey Exchange, Hong Kong’s largest* licensed digital asset trading platform under HashKey Holdings Limited (3887.HK), a Hong Kong-listed company, announced the launch of the Hang Seng Gold ETF Tokenized Unlisted T Class (USD ACC) (code: HSGLD) on its HashKey Exchange financial channel. The product is now officially launched, and all eligible investors can subscribe and redeem.

The Hang Seng Gold ETF aims to closely track the performance of the LBMA morning gold fixing price, denominated in US dollars. Following its launch, the relevant fund units will be available for subscription and redemption through the HashKey Exchange financial channel.

Gold has long possessed the attributes of a safe haven, asset allocation, and store of value. Against the backdrop of increased market volatility and global investors' continued focus on asset stability, the allocation value of gold-related products in asset portfolios has garnered widespread attention. This collaboration signifies a further step in the implementation of products and services between traditional asset management institutions and licensed digital asset platforms, accumulating new RWA (Real Asset Management) practices for the Hong Kong market.

Michelle Cheng, Director of HashKey Exchange, stated, “The launch of the Hang Seng Gold ETF Tokenized Unlisted T Class (USD ACC) on HashKey Exchange’s wealth management channel demonstrates that traditional asset management products are accelerating their integration with licensed digital asset platforms. Gold is one of the most mature and widely accepted underlying assets globally. The significance of this collaboration lies not only in providing investors with a wider range of compliant asset allocation options but also in accumulating experience for the Hong Kong market in exploring digital distribution and service models for traditional assets. HashKey Exchange hopes to continue leveraging its role as a licensed platform in connecting the traditional financial and digital asset markets, working with more high-quality institutions to promote the continued implementation of RWA products with real asset backing, clear rules, and compliant pathways in Hong Kong.”

Wong King-fung, Director and CEO of Hang Seng Investment Management Limited, said, “By launching the Hang Seng Gold ETF tokenized unlisted T class (USD ACC), we are extending the product’s investment from traditional distribution channels to on-chain investors, providing them with another compliant investment option. We are delighted to partner with HashKey Exchange to launch this project, supporting portfolio diversification, promoting the development of physical asset tokenization, and supporting Hong Kong’s financial market to further move towards digitalization and internationalization. We will continue to contribute to Hong Kong’s development into an international gold trading hub.”
