Gold Exchange and CNCBI Push Tokenised Deposit Gold Settlement
Start here
On 3 November 2026, Ming Pao reported that the Hong Kong Gold Exchange, participating in the Hong Kong Monetary Authority's Ensemble sandbox programme with China CITIC Bank International, allows members to tokenise deposits, enabling offshore Hong Kong gold settlement to be completed in T+5 minutes on a delivery-versus-payment basis, with operation expected in the first two quarters of next year. The Gold Exchange said 4 member banks have already tested it and used it for real settlement, believes it is suitable for non-standardised products and cross-border settlement, and that it will operate in parallel with the Hong Kong gold settlement launching next year.
