AMINA Bank Secures Hong Kong Regulatory Approval for Institutional Crypto Trading Platform

AMINA Bank, a specialized digital asset financial institution, has obtained regulatory authorization to deploy its institutional cryptocurrency trading services in Hong Kong. This strategic expansion coincides with remarkable growth in the region’s digital asset markets, where trading volumes surged by 233% during the first half of 2025. The license enables AMINA Bank to offer comprehensive crypto-asset services to professional investors and financial institutions operating within Hong Kong’s jurisdiction. This development represents a significant milestone in the bank’s global expansion strategy and reinforces Hong Kong’s position as an emerging hub for regulated digital asset markets. The approval comes amid increasing institutional adoption of cryptocurrency products and services throughout the Asia-Pacific region. AMINA Bank’s established infrastructure for digital asset custody and trading solutions positions it to capitalize on the growing demand from sophisticated market participants seeking regulated entry points into cryptocurrency markets. The bank’s expansion into Hong Kong reflects the territory’s progressive regulatory approach toward digital assets while providing institutional clients with enhanced access to crypto markets through a regulated banking partner.
