What the SFC said
The SFC sets out the roadmap for the investor identification regime for the exchange-traded derivatives market (HKIDR-DM), scheduled for the second quarter of 2028. Relevant intermediaries must assign each relevant client a BCAN, submit client identification data to an HKEX repository and include the BCAN on every order.
