Hong Kong Treasury Bureau: Preparing to issue the third batch of token bonds and promoting the tokenization of assets and financial instruments such as precious metals

Odaily News Hong Kongs Financial Secretary Paul Chan said that Hong Kong has issued green bonds in tokenized form twice in 2023 and 2025, and the third batch of tokenized bonds is also being prepared. Hong Kong will subsequently regularize the issuance of tokenized government bonds and provide incentives for the tokenization of real-world assets, such as exempting tokenized exchange-traded funds (ETFs) from stamp duty on transfers.

In addition, Hong Kong will also promote the tokenization of a wider range of assets and financial instruments, and demonstrate the diverse applications of tokenization technology in different fields, including precious metals, non-ferrous metals and renewable energy (such as solar panels).
