KUN Group Secures Hong Kong SFC Licence for Type 1, 4 and 9 Activities, Expanding Digital Financial Services

HONG KONG, Nov. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A Hong Kong subsidiary of KUN Group has been granted a licence by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) to carry on Type 1 (Dealing in Securities), Type 4 (Advising on Securities) and Type 9 (Asset Management) regulated activities. Following approval-in-principle in September 2026, the formal licensing marks a significant step in KUN's plans to expand its securities, virtual asset and asset management businesses in Hong Kong.

The Type 1 licence includes permission to provide virtual asset dealing services, enabling KUN to expand its regulated virtual asset dealing capabilities in Hong Kong through SFC-licensed trading platforms, subject to applicable licence conditions. The Type 4 licence also covers securities and virtual asset advisory services, while Type 9 supports asset management services for professional investors.

KUN is also targeting Q1 2027 for the initial rollout of its tokenised investment product distribution services. The planned offering includes tokenised money market funds, tokenised bond funds and tokenised gold-related investment products. Acting as a distributor, KUN aims to broaden the investment options available to eligible clients, subject to applicable product eligibility and distribution requirements, while addressing their asset allocation and financial management needs.
