Hong Kong Investor and Financial Education Council: Virtual asset spot ETFs should be considered as supplementary investments

According to ChainCatcher, the Hong Kong Investor and Financial Education Committee stated that although virtual asset spot ETFs listed in Hong Kong are regulated by the Securities and Futures Commission, investors can buy and sell virtual asset spot ETFs through securities firms or banks, and the trading method is as convenient and simple as stocks or other ETFs, but investors need to understand the risk level of virtual asset spot ETFs and evaluate whether they are suitable.

Since virtual asset spot ETFs are extremely volatile and may not necessarily bring about the effect of risk diversification, virtual asset spot ETFs should only be regarded as supplementary investments in investment portfolios.
