Wealth Tracker: Hong Kong positioning itself as a precious metals hub - what does this mean for the market?

Published Jan 28, 2025, 9:50 AM

Hong Kong is at a pivotal moment as it strives to position itself as a global hub for commodities trading, particularly for precious metals.

With its proximity to China, the world’s largest consumer of base and precious metals, and its role as an international financial centre, the city is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between Asia’s growing demand and global trading influence.

As BRICS countries drive a significant portion of global commodities demand, Hong Kong has a unique opportunity to serve as a vital trading hub for BRICS countries and the broader Asian market.

On The Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Gregor Gregersen, Founder of Silver Bullion Group, to find out how Hong Kong can capitalise on this opportunity and establish itself as a benchmark-setting commodities hub.
