Forthright Securities Unveils Enhanced Platform at Bitcoin Asia 2026 in Hong Kong<\/strong><\/p>\n HONG KONG, Aug. 28, 2026<\/strong> \u2013 Forthright Securities Company Limited, a part of JF SmartInvest Holdings Ltd, made waves at Bitcoin Asia 2026, the biggest Bitcoin conference in Asia. This event marked the company’s official entry into the virtual assets market as a licensed brokerage. With a commitment to a “One Account, Invest Globally” strategy, Forthright Securities now allows clients to access a range of traditional securities and virtual assets from a single account, eliminating the need for multiple accounts or platform switches.<\/p>\n On the first day of the conference, Richard Zhengwei He, CEO of Forthright Financial and Forthright Securities, delivered an insightful keynote address. Speaking at the prestigious Genesis Stage, he covered various topics like the mainstream adoption of Bitcoin, innovative crypto ETFs, and the tokenization of real-world assets. During his speech, Richard emphasized how licensed brokerages are transforming digital asset services to support clients in incorporating virtual assets into their long-term investment strategies. He also discussed Hong Kong\u2019s potential as a hub for digital assets and offshore wealth management.<\/p>\n Richard elaborated on Forthright Securities\u2019 approach as a next-gen internet brokerage in Hong Kong. He highlighted the entry of traditional institutions into the digital asset space and outlined how licensed brokerages can provide specialized advisory services, detailed research, and AI-driven investment solutions through a single regulated account\u2014streamlining the funding process for investors.<\/p>\n At the two-day conference, Forthright Securities set up a booth where attendees, including investors and industry professionals, could interact with the company\u2019s innovative technologies, such as the Forthright AI Investment Terminal, and get a taste of their complete advisory services.<\/p>\n In his remarks, Richard pointed out, “Globally, traditional finance still allocates less than 1% to crypto assets. However, with Hong Kong emerging as a key offshore wealth management center, the city is in a prime position to attract the next wave of institutional investment. If family offices and private wealth management firms start targeting a 5% allocation in digital assets, we can anticipate significant market growth.”<\/p>\n Growing Demand Meets Maturing Regulatory Framework<\/strong><\/p>\n Forthright Securities emphasizes that technology should ultimately benefit its clients. Earlier this July, the company launched trading for virtual assets through its app, alongside the Forthright AI Investment Terminal at its New Investment Experience Hub in Sheung Wan. Retail traders can now buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana, while professional clients can access a broader range of tokens. This unified account enables clients to hold virtual assets alongside traditional stocks, providing an integrated investment experience.<\/p>\n Forthright supports clients with three main offerings: personalized advisory services, a dedicated research team, and a data-driven AI investing platform. The firm aims to combine the benefits of AI tools with the expertise of professional advisors, helping clients navigate this emerging asset class.<\/p>\n These developments come in the wake of Hong Kong\u2019s new virtual asset licensing framework, which has made it easier for licensed brokers to offer related services. As of April 2026, over 200 companies in Hong Kong updated their licenses to provide a variety of investment services. Forthright Securities is among the few financial institutions to receive approvals for both traditional and virtual asset business activities.<\/p>\n As regulations become clearer, an increasing number of high-net-worth individuals and family offices are seeking to invest directly in virtual assets. Forthright\u2019s single-account model is well-suited to meet this growing demand, merging traditional and digital investments seamlessly.<\/p>\n About Forthright Securities<\/strong><\/p>\n Forthright Securities Company Limited is a licensed brokerage under JF SmartInvest Holdings Ltd. Holding several licenses\u2014including Type 1, 2, 4, and 5 from the SFC\u2014Forthright Securities is dedicated to blending AI technology with traditional advisory practices.
