The Hong Kong Insurance Authority is proposing a series of new rules to establish a capital framework for assets including cryptocurrencies and infrastructure, guiding capital flows toward areas prioritized by the government, according to a report from Bloomberg.

It is understood that the Insurance Authority will implement a 100% risk capital requirement for crypto assets, while stablecoin investments will be subject to the current risk capital requirements linked to stablecoins and fiat currencies in Hong Kong.
