LME Explores Tokenizing Metals in Hong Kong Warehouses Aligned with Economic Blueprint

According to Reuters and Bloomberg, the London Metal Exchange (LME) is exploring tokenizing metals stored in its Hong Kong warehouses to support financing, aligning with Hong Kong's five-year economic blueprint announced in September 2026.

The LME stated it is "in early stages of exploring the tokenization of over-the-counter metal inventory to support business financing" and will engage with stakeholders to develop its plan. The exchange has scheduled an invitation-only industry roundtable in early November to discuss the initiative.
