CNCBI's tokenisation platform is connected to the HKMA's Project Ensemble; the use case was tested for intrabank settlement and interbank transfer, with a target to launch the service in 2027. The bank, sole settlement bank for HKGX since 2025, says the tokenised deposit option will sit alongside traditional deposit settlement in a dual-track approach and lists 24/7 settlement, DvP risk reduction, smart-contract automation and Ensemble interconnectivity among the advantages.
