🇭🇰 HONG KONG INSURANCE REGULATION CONSIDERING CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS FOR CRYPTO

🔸 The Hong Kong Insurance Regulator is proposing new capital regulations related to crypto assets.

🔸 Insurance companies investing in crypto would be subject to a 100% risk rating, meaning they must have sufficient capital to cover the entire investment.

🔸 Stablecoins could be subject to a lower risk rating if regulated in Hong Kong and backed by fiat currency assets.

🔸 This proposal is still in draft form and will be open for public comment from February to April.

🔸 The regulator stated that the goal is to update insurance regulations to reflect new developments in the regulation of crypto and stablecoins.
