The Hong Kong Monetary Authority published a whitepaper on the quantum preparedness of Hong Kong’s banking industry and its first Quantum Preparedness Index.

  • The Hong Kong Monetary Authority gave the banking sector a Quantum Preparedness Index score of just 2.3 out of 10.
  • Most banks remain stuck in the awareness phase, with few formal plans or pilot projects for post-quantum cryptography.
  • The HKMA aims to lift the industry to a 10 by 2030 through toolkits, workshops and skills training, as global regulators, including the U.S. government, push parallel timelines for quantum development and post-quantum security upgrades.
