Addentax Group Eyes Regulated Hong Kong Digital-Lending Acquisition, Explores Stablecoin Partnership

Addentax presses into regulated digital lending in Hong Kong

Late-stage Hong Kong lending acquisition boosts Addentax fintech capabilities

Addentax Group Corp. is in late-stage negotiations to acquire a Hong Kong–based online credit services platform that operates under Hong Kong’s Money Lenders Ordinance (Cap. 163). The target, founded in 2016, serves more than 30,000 customers annually and reports historical loan approvals exceeding HK$2 billion. Addentax is positioning the deal to integrate regulated lending operations, AI-driven credit assessment tools and 24/7 digital origination capabilities into its Asia‑Pacific footprint.

The company says the acquisition would provide local operational expertise, licensing framework and infrastructure that strengthen data‑driven risk modeling, customer segmentation and scalable digital service delivery. The target’s algorithm‑based credit assessment and automated processing systems are expected to complement Addentax’s plans to develop compliant digital asset‑related financial applications, using internal risk controls aligned with Hong Kong’s evolving regulatory environment.

Addentax presents the transaction as a strategic move to accelerate entry into regulated digital lending and broaden its technology‑enabled finance offerings across the region. The announcement, released via PR Newswire from Shenzhen, emphasizes that the deal remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, with definitive terms, timing and transaction economics to be disclosed as negotiations conclude and filings are posted on the company’s website.

Stablecoin collaboration talks with major Bitcoin holder

Separately, Addentax is in advanced discussions with a significant global Bitcoin holder to explore a sovereign‑aligned, regulatory‑compliant stablecoin initiative in Southeast Asia. The contemplated token is described as fully reserve‑backed and independently audited, referencing a diversified basket of fiat currencies and assets, and would pair Addentax’s AI‑enabled compliance and risk monitoring with the investor’s digital asset infrastructure; the firms are engaging central banks and regulators in two Southeast Asian jurisdictions but stress no definitive agreements exist.

Company background and strategic context

Addentax, traditionally an integrated service provider in garment manufacturing and logistics, frames these moves as a strategic pivot to diversify into technology‑enabled financial services. Management says the Hong Kong platform’s market knowledge will help expand its operational footprint locally and explore broader regional opportunities, while stakeholders await regulatory clearances and final transaction documentation.
