(Hong Kong, April 16th, 2026) — EX.IO, a leading Hong Kong-based Virtual Asset Trading Platform (VATP) licensed in Hong Kong, today announced a significant upgrade to its digital asset custodial insurance, with total coverage potentially going up to USD 250.45 million*.
The new policy is underwritten by OneInfinity by OneDegree (“OneInfinity”) and backed by a comprehensive reinsurance consortium of AA-rated global insurers and Lloyd’s syndicates. The reinsurance is placed via speciality Lloyd’s broker Elmore and Evertas Insurance Agency LLC (Evertas), a Coverholder at Lloyd’s, and underwritten by certain underwriters at Lloyd’s and other insurers.
At EX.IO, we believe this enhanced custodial insurance significantly bolsters our client asset protection framework, fully complies with the SFC’s stringent requirements, and further strengthens our position as a trusted leader in Hong Kong’s regulated virtual asset ecosystem.
For the next step, As EX.IO continues to accelerate its growth – rapidly expanding its suite of compliant Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenized securities and gaining strong client adoption – our Assets Under Custody (AUC) is expected to rise steadily, supported by this strengthened insurance coverage.
Ms. Chen WU, Co-Founder & CEO of EX.IO, said: “Demand for secure and reliable custody solutions continues to grow strongly in Hong Kong and globally. Investors are placing increasing importance on the insurance protection behind their assets, which is precisely the driving force behind this custodial insurance upgrade.
Leveraging OneInfinity’s established expertise in digital asset insurance, EX.IO believes this enhancement significantly strengthens the protection of every asset entrusted to us by our clients. With this upgraded safeguard in place, we can deliver greater peace of mind to our clients, continue to onboard a more diverse range of compliant RWA products in Hong Kong, and support the healthy development of the digital asset market.
Looking ahead, EX.IO remains committed to raising the bar for security and trust in the virtual asset industry, helping Hong Kong build a more robust and mature digital asset ecosystem that benefits investors interested in digital assets and the broader financial market.”
Alvin Kwock, Co-Founder of OneInfinity by OneDegree, added: “We are honoured to support EX.IO, a licensed virtual asset exchange in Hong Kong, with digital wallet protection. OneInfinity’s technology-enabled insurance solutions are designed to provide practical and comprehensive risk mitigation for both our clients and their customers.
This collaboration goes beyond a traditional insurance offering, it reinforces EX.IO’s position as a leading virtual asset exchange in Hong Kong and contributes to a safer, more secure environment for its users. At the same time, their continued success supports Hong Kong’s standing as a prominent global hub for virtual assets.”
*The actual total insured amount potentially reaching a maximum of US$250.45 million.
