According to Foresight News, Hong Kong's Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Christopher Hui, announced that Hong Kong has issued tokenized green bonds twice, in 2023 and 2025, and is preparing for a third batch. The city plans to regularize the issuance of tokenized government bonds and provide incentives for the tokenization of real-world assets, such as exempting tokenized exchange-traded funds (ETFs) from stamp duty upon transfer.
Hong Kong aims to promote broader tokenization of assets and financial instruments, showcasing the diverse applications of tokenization technology across various sectors, including precious metals, non-ferrous metals, and renewable energy like solar panels. This initiative is part of Hong Kong's efforts to advance its financial technology landscape and encourage innovation in asset management.
