HK Web3 Feastival Roundtable: From "Asset Registration" to "On-chain Issuance", Bridging the Last Mile of RWA Cross-border Compliance
ChainCatcher reported live that Tang Bo, Assistant Dean of the Financial Research Institute at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Fei Si, Partner at King & Wood Mallesons, Diao Zhi Hai, Head of International Wealth Management at China International Capital Corporation, and Gavin Wang, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer of SNZ Holding & SNZ Capital, jointly attended the HK Web3 Feastival roundtable discussion, sharing insights on "from asset registration" to "on-chain issuance," bridging the last mile of RWA cross-border compliance.
Fei Si pointed out that the so-called "from asset registration to on-chain issuance" essentially establishes a replicable, sustainable, and legally compliant channel for "domestic assets, overseas issuance." He believes that the most critical aspect at this stage is to first establish a solid transaction structure and top-level product design, clarifying whether the product is classified as equity or debt, as this will directly determine the corresponding regulatory authorities, communication methods, and subsequent legal document arrangements.
Diao Zhi Hai approached the issue from the practical perspective of traditional financial institutions, stating that the biggest challenge currently is not a single isolated pain point, but how to systematically connect multiple compliance nodes to form a truly implementable closed-loop mechanism. He indicated that RWA cross-border projects involve not only financial regulation but also data cross-border, cybersecurity, foreign exchange management, and other departmental collaborations. Therefore, it is essential to examine whether the underlying assets can be clearly defined and mapped on-chain, who qualifies as the issuer and controlling entity, and whether the non-financial regulatory requirements throughout the process have been incorporated into the plan.
Gavin Wang entered the discussion from the investment and market demand perspective, emphasizing that the global trend of asset tokenization is certain, and that high-quality Chinese assets are still significantly undervalued overseas. This means that as long as the cross-border compliance path is opened, market demand genuinely exists. He believes that investment institutions are most concerned with whether the entire project has clear compliance boundaries and marketability: red lines cannot be crossed, and gray areas must be approached with caution. What is truly worth investing in are those asset types with clearer regulatory expectations that investors can more easily understand and accept. In the long term, he is optimistic about two types of Chinese cross-border RWA targets: one type is large, high-quality Chinese assets that are easily understood by overseas investors, and the other type includes high-end manufacturing, robotics, AI, and pharmaceutical pipelines that are still undervalued overseas but possess global competitiveness.
