Enhancing Financial Resources for Sustainable Growth in Hong Kong by 2025

Hong Kong is taking significant strides in promoting green bonds, sustainable banking, and ESG disclosures, as it embarks on various capital market initiatives. One of the key events that underscores this commitment is the "Unlocking Capital for Sustainability" sustainable finance and business forum.

This forum, co-hosted by our website and UNEP FI since 2018, is set to host its inaugural dialogue in Hong Kong. The specific date and location within the city are yet to be announced. The forum aims to convene key stakeholders across Asia, bringing together individuals who matter to the attendee.

The forum provides a platform for publishing news, events, jobs, and thought leadership. It serves as a gateway for international investors looking to invest in Asia's growing demand for sustainable finance. Hong Kong's financial infrastructure and strategic position in the Greater Bay Area make it an ideal location for such a gathering.

China, a key player in global climate action, is on track to peak emissions by 2025 and reach carbon neutrality ahead of its 2060 target. This ambitious commitment is expected to shape global decarbonization and regional sustainable finance policies. Hong Kong and Greater China will play a crucial role in this transition, with green building codes, renewable energy investments, and increasing demand for sustainable materials, particularly in the construction sector.

As the region faces the challenge of mitigating risks while building resilience into its infrastructure, the forum aims to discuss accelerating the region's green revolution. Investors increasingly expect clear climate transition plans from businesses, and regulatory frameworks in Hong Kong provide clear guidelines and incentives for promoting sustainable finance.

The cost for attending the forum is HKD 1150 or SGD 200. For those interested in contributing to the conversation on sustainable finance and business, this forum offers an excellent opportunity to engage with key stakeholders and chart the way forward on accelerating the region's green revolution.
