The financial system is entering a new phase of transformation, shaped by geopolitical realignment, shifting capital flows and rapid technological advancement. As the interplay between regulation, market structure and competitiveness intensifies, our Global Regulatory Forum 2026 in Hong Kong will convene senior policymakers, regulators and industry leaders to examine these pivotal shifts.
The Forum will explore how authorities are responding to converging forces, balancing resilience with growth, navigating fragmentation, and redefining how capital markets operate in a more complex and technology-driven environment.
Join us for critical discussions on strengthening cooperation, managing emerging risks, and shaping a more resilient and adaptive regulatory framework for the years ahead.
