Hong Kong Financial Services and the Treasury: Preparing to issue the third batch of tokenized bonds and promote the tokenization of assets and financial instruments such as precious metals

Foresight News reports that according to the Hong Kong Wen Wei Po, the Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Christopher Hui, stated that Hong Kong has issued green bonds in a tokenized form twice in 2023 and 2025, and the third batch of tokenized bonds is also being prepared. Subsequently, Hong Kong will regularize the issuance of tokenized government bonds and provide incentives for the tokenization of real-world assets, such as exempting stamp duty on the transfer of tokenized exchange-traded funds (ETFs). In addition, Hong Kong will also promote a broader tokenization of assets and financial instruments, showcasing the diverse applications of tokenization technology in different fields, including precious metals, non-ferrous metals, and renewable energy (such as solar panels).
