The Hong Kong Monetary Authority announced a revised schedule for HKSAR bond issuance scheduled for early 2025, with a focus on infrastructure and sustainability.
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has released an updated provisional issuance schedule for agency government bonds (GBs) under the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government (HKSAR Government) program. This revised plan relates to the Infrastructure Bond Program and the Government Sustainability Bond Program, covering the period from January to March 2025, as announced on January 9, 2025.
Various names and competitive bidding
GB is denominated in Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) and Renminbi (RMB) and is offered through competitive bidding. The updated schedule provides detailed information on potential tenants, bid dates, issue size and issue date. These details are essential for potential investors and can be found in an information note on the Hong Kong Government Bonds website.
Potential adjustments depending on market conditions
The issuance schedule outlines the expected plans, but the HKMA notes that these details are provisional and subject to change depending on market conditions. Authorities may further revise the schedule, if necessary, to ensure that the issuance process remains in line with current economic conditions.
Upcoming Announcements and Bidding Notices
Details of each bond issuance, including the use of the proceeds, will be confirmed and communicated in a bid notice prior to the scheduled bid date. These announcements will provide important insight to investors interested in participating in these Treasury programs.
