Hong Kong Monetary Authority Reporting

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) implemented the Securities and Futures (OTC Derivative Transactions – Reporting and Record Keeping Obligations) Rules as part of Hong Kong’s response to the G20 agreement to mandate reporting of all OTC derivatives.

What is HKMA Reporting?

The rules for reporting of OTC derivatives in Hong Kong are jointly governed by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC).Under this framework, the HKMA was mandated with establishing the Hong Kong Trade Repository (HKTR) and reporting commenced in 2015.

Similarly to most other G20 OTC derivatives reporting regimes, the reporting covers the credit, equity, FX, interest rates and commodities asset classes.

The following entity types are required to report:

  • Authorised Institutions
  • Approved Money Brokers
  • Licensed Corporations
  • Central Clearing Counterparties.

The Hong Kong regulator implemented a comprehensive restructuring of its derivatives reporting framework which went live in September 2025, bringing it into alignment with other G20 jurisdictions, including using ISO 20022 XML format and the adoption of UPI and UTI.
