HKMA Welcomes Official Launch of the Chongqing-Hong Kong Cross-Border Data Verification Platform
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) announced on October 14 the official launch of the Chongqing-Hong Kong Cross-Border Data Verification Platform (CQ-HK DVP), jointly promoted by the HKMA and relevant Chongqing authorities. Leveraging blockchain technology and hash-based data encoding, the platform enables verification of customer-submitted data without cross-border transmission or storage of original documents. Initially focused on cross-border financial scenarios, it supports verification of northbound and southbound data flows for banks in Chongqing and Hong Kong, serving a range of banking services such as account opening and loan applications for customers in both regions.
