How much gold is in the world? If the world's total gold reserves of approximately 216,000 tons were refined into a giant pure gold cube, it would be roughly 22 meters on each side. Hong Kong Gold Exchange Chairman Dr. Haywood Cheung said, "Gold is a rare and precious metal with high investment value, so it needs a regulated platform to set rules for precious metal trading, supervise the trading process, and ensure standardization and transparency. This is the role of the Hong Kong Gold Exchange. We are the only physical gold exchange recognized by the Hong Kong SAR Government."

For over a century, the gold market has evolved along with the global economy. The predecessor of the Hong Kong Gold Exchange, the Chinese Gold and Silver Exchange Society, maintained fairness and impartiality in precious metal trading through a membership system. After corporatization, it was officially renamed the "Hong Kong Gold Exchange" in early 2025. Dr. Haywood Cheung added, "Whether it was the 'Gold and Silver Exchange' established in the early 1970s, standing alongside the other three stock exchanges; the subsequent lifting of restrictions on gold import and export; or the booming 24-hour gold market in New York, London, and Hong Kong in the 1980s, we have consistently responded to market conditions by making suggestions to the government that would benefit the development of Hong Kong's gold market." In the new century, the Hong Kong Gold Exchange has successively proposed the establishment of airport vaults, promoted the digitalization of gold, and made visits to Belt and Road countries, leading Hong Kong's gold market toward the international arena. Dr. Haywood Cheung stated, "We and the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau will continue to promote gold investor education, enabling investors of all ages to better understand the gold market. At the same time, we will strengthen corporate governance, expand our overseas membership, and optimize the membership registration system. By obtaining world-class certifications and registration qualifications, we aim to enhance the credibility of the Hong Kong Gold Exchange."
