Gate News message, April 15 — Mirae Asset Securities’ Hong Kong entity received final approval from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) for a digital asset retail license (VA License Uplift). The firm plans to officially launch a mobile trading system (MTS) for digital assets targeting local retail investors in June, offering an integrated investment environment covering traditional assets such as stocks and bonds alongside digital assets. The platform will also enable Hong Kong clients to invest in the Korean stock market.
This milestone represents more than a service expansion; it marks the evolution of a traditional asset-focused MTS into a one-stop retail platform encompassing digital assets. Securing regulatory approval in Hong Kong, a global financial hub, is expected to serve as a foothold for future digital asset business expansion into the U.S., Singapore, and other major markets. CEO Sung Jun-yeop stated, “Through this license acquisition, we have built a new investment ecosystem organically connecting traditional and digital assets. We plan to develop the mobile platform into a comprehensive platform integrating real-world assets (RWA) and tokenization-based digital assets.”
He added, “In the mid to long term, we will continue expanding the Web3 financial ecosystem and extend our digital asset business model into the Chinese market.” Mirae Asset Securities successfully issued digital bonds in Hong Kong in January. The firm plans to build a global digital wallet based on “Mirae Asset 3.0” and pursue Web3-based business both domestically and internationally.
