What SINOHOPE Asset does

SINOHOPE Asset Management (Hong Kong) Limited, operating under the brand SINOHOPE ASSET, is a Hong Kong-domiciled, SFC-licensed virtual asset management institution that serves Professional Investors as defined under the Securities and Futures Ordinance. The firm holds SFC Type 1 (Dealing in Securities), Type 4 (Advising on Securities), and Type 9 (Asset Management) licenses, and was the first HKSFC-licensed fund manager approved to actively manage virtual asset funds in Hong Kong and the first to offer virtual asset discretionary managed account services.

The platform is built on a proprietary investment risk management system that supports 24/7 monitoring and customized investor rule configurations, and accepts both fiat and virtual asset subscriptions.

The firm distributes exclusively through a direct, phone-based professional sales model targeting HNW individuals, institutional/family office investors, and corporate treasuries in Hong Kong, with a multi-step subscription process requiring qualification confirmation. Core operational infrastructure is provided via strategic partnerships: Coinbase for trading and discretionary account management, BitGo and HEX Trust for institutional-grade custody, DBS for fiat banking, and Fidelity and Interactive Brokers for broader investor access. Legal, audit, and tax structuring are supported by Baker McKenzie, Mourant, and BDO.

SINOHOPE ASSET is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sinohope Technology Holdings Limited (1611.HK, formerly New Huo Technology Holdings Limited), a Hong Kong Stock Exchange-listed parent. The subsidiary and parent rebranded to the SINOHOPE brand in September 2023.
