Harvest Global Investments

Institution · Asset manager

Harvest Global Investments is one of the four issuers granted conditional SFC approval in April 2024 for Hong Kong's first spot crypto ETFs, running the Harvest Ether Spot ETF (9179.HK). Unlike Bosera International and ChinaAMC, Harvest's fund documentation states explicitly that the manager will not stake any portion of the ETH held by the sub-fund, making it Hong Kong's deliberate non-staking example within an SFC regime that permits, but does not require, ETH ETF staking.

What it is

Harvest Global Investments is the Hong Kong entity of Harvest Fund Management, a large mainland Chinese asset manager, running a Hong Kong-listed spot Ether ETF alongside its broader conventional fund range including products such as the G2 Tech 50 ETF.

Relevance to tokenisation

Harvest’s non-staking design choice is a useful counterpoint to Bosera’s and ChinaAMC’s staking-enabled products: the SFC’s ETH ETF regime makes staking an issuer option within an approved framework, not a mandatory feature of the licence itself. An operator evaluating Hong Kong’s regime should read Harvest, Bosera, and ChinaAMC together rather than assume every SFC-approved spot ETH product stakes. See Hong Kong’s staking-enabled ETH ETF regime for the fuller comparison.
