MetaComp, a licensed cross-border foreign exchange and digital assets infrastructure provider headquartered in Singapore, and OSL Group, a Hong Kong-listed global compliant digital financial infrastructure platform, have announced a strategic partnership to foster compliant cross-border digital asset infrastructure between the two countries.
The duo said in a statement on Monday that they will collaborate to advance digital solutions for cross-border payments, improve real-world asset (RWA) token market infrastructure, and foster regulatory-compliant innovation between Hong Kong and Singapore.
The duo said they have shared commitment to build a robust and interconnected ecosystem for digital assets and tokenized finance.
The partnership aims to address critical market needs by enhancing liquidity, enabling cross-border payments, facilitating compliant RWA token trading, and strengthening digital asset management and compliance frameworks.
To support the growing demand for over-the-counter (OTC) digital asset trading, MetaComp and OSL will examine ways to connect and integrate liquidity networks to improve trade execution for institutional clients dealing in digital assets, including payment instruments.
This effort will enhance OTC market efficiency across the two financial centers, offering better pricing, reduced slippage, and seamless access to liquidity.
The two firms will also co-develop infrastructure links built on MetaComp’s and OSL’s infrastructures to facilitate the use of stablecoins for cross-border payments.
This initiative will enable payment service providers and financial institutions to move value between Hong Kong and Singapore with greater speed, cost-efficiency, and transparency, while fully adhering to the regulatory frameworks of both jurisdictions.
Recognizing the growing role of tokenization in capital markets, OSL and MetaComp, together with MetaComp’s parent company Alpha Ladder Finance Pte Ltd (ALFIN), a capital markets service license holder regulated by Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), will examine solutions to better enable the cross-listing and trading of tokenized real-world assets, which can be purchased using fiat or stablecoins, in compliance with stringent regulatory standards.
The initiative aims to establish more liquid and transparent regulated markets for RWA tokens in Asia, unlocking access to previously illiquid assets for institutional and accredited investors.
Further strengthening the partnership’s foundation is a shared focus on compliance and risk management.
According to the statement, MetaComp and OSL will collaborate on enhancing anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CFT) measures by leveraging industry-leading KYC databases, on-chain wallet analytics, and cross-chain transaction tracing tools.
These efforts are intended to uphold the highest standards of integrity while protecting clients and the broader ecosystem from illicit activity.
“This partnership with OSL represents a significant milestone in our commitment to building the next generation of digital financial infrastructure,
“By combining our strengths, we are not only advancing regional connectivity but also setting new benchmarks for compliance and innovation in digital asset markets,” said Tin Pei Ling, Co-President of MetaComp.
Eugene Cheung, Chief Commercial Officer of OSL Group, said Hong Kong and Singapore are natural partners in shaping Asia’s digital finance future.
“Through this collaboration with MetaComp, we’re laying the groundwork for interoperable, real-world solutions that serve institutional needs and meet the highest regulatory expectations,” he added.
The partnership underscores both firms’ long-term vision of enabling responsible growth and technological innovation in digital finance across Asia’s key capital markets, said the statement.
