As of the end of March this year, the Hong Kong Government had issued approximately HK$105.2 billion worth of infrastructure bonds

The Zhitong Finance App learned that on December 12, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government released the “Infrastructure Bond Report 2025”, which explains the allocation of funds obtained from the issuance of infrastructure bonds (infrastructure bonds) by the Hong Kong Government. Since the establishment of the Infrastructure Bond Program, as of March 31 this year, the Hong Kong Government has issued approximately HK$105.2 billion worth of infrastructure bonds to make good use of market capital to support infrastructure projects and promote the development of the bond market.

The Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of Hong Kong, Mr Hui Ching-yu, said that the “Infrastructure Bond Report 2025” details the allocation of funds raised by the infrastructure bond programme. The proceeds raised are transferred to the Capital Works Reserve Fund to promote infrastructure projects, such as speeding up the construction of the northern metropolitan area, so that projects that benefit the economy and people's livelihood can be completed as soon as possible, and enhance Hong Kong's competitiveness. Infrastructure bonds also provide citizens with safe, reliable and stable investment options, giving them a greater sense of “participation” and “acquisition” in infrastructure projects that promote the long-term development of Hong Kong.

The capital raised by the Hong Kong Government through infrastructure bonds has been fully allocated or reserved for infrastructure projects, including ten major development projects in the northern metropolitan area, such as the Xintian Science and Technology City (including Hetao District), the Kwu Tung North/Fanling North New Development Area, the Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen New Development Area and the Yuen Long South New Development Area.
