Allen & Overy has advised the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) on its $1 billion green bond issuance with a tenor of 5 years. This is the first issuance under the government’s HK$100 billion ($12.75 billion) green bond programme.

The bonds will be listed on both the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange’s regulated market. Under the HKSAR government’s green bond framework, the proceeds from the issuance will be used to fund the city’s public works projects that provide environmental benefits and support the sustainable development of Hong Kong. 

Credit Agricole CIB and HSBC acted as joint global coordinators, joint lead managers, joint bookrunners, and joint green structuring banks for the Green Bond offering.
