It is reported that if this issuance proceeds, it will be the Hong Kong government's third digital bond issuance since 2023. Currently, there are at least six digital bonds issued by companies in Hong Kong, with a total fundraising amount of approximately $1 billion, of which about 70% is priced for completion in 2025. HSBC Holdings Limited and King & Wood Mallesons stated that an increasing number of companies from mainland China and other regions are considering issuing digital bonds in Hong Kong. Last month, two state-owned enterprises, Shenzhen Futian Investment Holding Co., Ltd. and Shankou Holding Group Co., Ltd., completed the pricing issuance of digital bonds in the Hong Kong market.
