The latest report by Climate Bonds Initiative found that Hong Kong’s sustainable debt market has achieved its largest growth yet, driven by government issuance, leading its peers in the Asian region and entering the global top 10 jurisdictions in green bonds issuance for the first time.

Hong Kong’s debt market experienced the largest growth relative to its historical performance. In 2023, the aligned volume of GSS+ debt originating from Hong Kong reached USD18.2 billion, representing a YoY increase of 236%. Most of this debt (USD15.6 billion) was issued under the green theme, while the social theme accumulated USD2.6 billion. Social and sustainability issuance volumes from Hong Kong issuers grew for a third consecutive year in 2023 to USD2.56 billion, compared to 2022 (USD1.98 billion).

The report is produced in association with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and Hong Kong Green Finance Association (HKGFA), and with support from Standard Chartered.
