Major study finds 61% of retail investors in Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland plan to increase allocations to tokenized funds.
A joint study by Aptos Labs and Boston Consulting Group (BCG), published October 28, 2025 in Hong Kong, finds 61% of retail fund investors in Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland plan to double allocations to funds thanks to tokenization and digital‑money features tested under the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s Project e‑HKD+. The survey of over 500 retail investors follows a joint pilot with Hang Seng Bank in Phase 2 of the e‑HKD+ program.
The finding matters because tokenized funds promise greater liquidity, transparency and faster capital access—features that shift investor preferences and enable new cross‑border use cases; the report notes major interest from Chinese Mainland respondents in diversification to Hong Kong and cites Aptos’s support for projects handling about US$60 billion monthly. Solomon Tesfaye of Aptos Labs says, “These technologies are transforming the investment landscape and investor expectations,” and BCG recommends holistic operating models for responsible scale‑up.
