Both Standard Chartered and Ant International are participants of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s (HKMA) Ensemble Sandbox, which tests use cases for tokensiation.

Standard Chartered has been a member of its Architecture Community since May 2024, and is jointly developing industry standards and assisting in the design and implementation of the Ensemble Sandbox.

Ant International is also a participant in the Ensemble Sandbox, developing two use cases using its Whale platform. It worked with HSBC in successfully completing HKD-denominated cross-bank test transactions.

Project Ensemble is the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s (HKMA) wholesale central bank digital currency (wCBDC) project aimed at fostering the development of tokenization in Hong Kong.
