Signum Digital plans to manage the STO platform, dubbed CS-Pro, after receiving final authorization from the SFC. It claims the platform will be a pioneering development in Hong Kong.

The preliminary regulations for virtual asset trading platforms were released by the Hong Kong SFC last month. Digital currency exchanges must submit license applications under the upcoming licensing system starting in June. This will allow everyday investors to trade specific high-capitalization tokens.

Hong Kong is investing heavily in the potential of technologies such as Web3, and has shown interest in becoming a crypto hub. Signum Digital’s approval for its STO platform and subscription service comes at a time when Hong Kong is making strides towards becoming a leader in the cryptocurrency industry.

The launch of the CS-Pro platform is anticipated to help achieve that goal by providing investors with secure and transparent opportunities to invest in a variety of asset classes.
