On November 3, Ant Group Co., Ltd. Chairman Eric Jing revealed at Hong Kong FinTech Week 2025 that the company has designated Hong Kong as the strategic pivot for its globalization efforts. He announced that subsidiary Ant Digital Tech will introduce comprehensive AI services across multiple scenarios.

Jing emphasized Hong Kong's advantages as a springboard for mainland enterprises' global expansion, citing its mature financial ecosystem and international talent pool. The newly launched AI services include three core products: Agentar (intelligent agent platform), ZOLOZ (security risk control platform), and an AI-powered mobile banking solution.

Preliminary results show significant operational improvements: - The AI marketing agent has increased conversion rates by 20% compared to traditional methods in pilot banks - Conversational mobile banking solutions boosted transaction conversion rates by 10% for Shanghai banks - The eKYC product currently commands over 80% market share in Hong Kong

The company also disclosed its Hong Kong operational milestones: - AlipayHK e-wallet serves more than 4.5 million active users - Ant Bank (Hong Kong) ranks among the city's eight digital banks - Following April's designation of Hong Kong as its overseas headquarters, the group jointly purchased a commercial property in Causeway Bay with Alibaba in October as its operational base

Additionally, Ant Group is participating in two key Hong Kong Monetary Authority initiatives: the "Ensemble" project and generative AI sandbox testing.
