TechFlow news, according to the South China Morning Post, more than 50 Hong Kong institutions appear on FTX's creditor list, including local regulators such as the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC). However, it remains unclear whether FTX actually owes money to these institutions.
The Securities and Futures Commission has not yet responded to requests for comment. A spokesperson for the Hong Kong Monetary Authority said: "We have noted the report. The list was compiled by a U.S. financial consulting firm and contains thousands of names, including regulatory bodies from various jurisdictions. We are unable to comment on the rationale for including HKMA on this list." In November 2022, HKMA Chief Executive余伟文 (Edmond Yau) stated while presenting the performance of the government's Exchange Fund that the fund had not invested in cryptocurrencies.Source link
