The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government announced on the 8th that it has successfully priced approximately HKD 27.6 billion worth of green bonds and infrastructure bonds under the government's sustainable bond program and infrastructure bond program, covering Hong Kong dollars, Chinese yuan, US dollars, and euros. This issuance has attracted widespread participation from global investors in over 30 markets, with a total subscription amount of approximately HKD 239 billion equivalent. The subscription amount is 8.6 times the issuance amount, resulting in approximately 7.6 times oversubscription. Among them, the issuance scale of 30-year Hong Kong dollar bonds is twice that of the initial issuance scale in 2025, and the 20-year and 30-year long-term RMB bonds launched for the first time in 2024 continue to be popular among investors. The Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, Paul Chan, stated that global institutional investors have responded enthusiastically to subscribing to these government bonds, fully reflecting their confidence in Hong Kong's development prospects. This batch of bonds is expected to be settled on May 14, 2026 and listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange. This batch of green bonds and infrastructure bonds has been rated "AA -" by Fitch, "Aa3" by Moody's, and "AA+" by S&P Global. (Looking into the New Era)
