Unlocking capital for sustainability 2024 - Hong Kong

Hong Kong plays a pivotal role in Asia’s burgeoning sustainable finance sector, acting as a major hub for green and sustainable investments. With its robust financial infrastructure and strategic position, Hong Kong has become a gateway for international investors looking to tap into Asia’s – and especially China’s – growing demand for sustainable finance.  

The city has embarked on a wide range of initiatives to promote green bonds, sustainable banking and ESG disclosures, with regulatory frameworks that provide clear guidelines and incentives.  

As a strategic gateway to China, the city attracts global capital and plays a key role in fostering innovation and collaboration across the region.  With China currently scheduled to surpass its carbon targets or peaking emissions by 2040 and reaching carbon neutrality by 2060, the Asian giant is witnessing new avenues of growth by exporting its own clean energy success stories globally, even while addressing challenges of coal reliance back home.    

Against a backdrop of geopolitical and trade tensions however, how will Hong Kong and greater China’s policies shape the world’s decarbonisation pathway and the region’s sustainable finance sector?  

Unlocking capital for sustainability, Asia’s premiere sustainable finance and business forum, hosted by Eco-Business and UNEP FI since 2018, will be hosting its inaugural dialogue in Hong Kong aimed at convening the key stakeholders across Asia to chart the way forward on accelerating the region’s sustainable development transition.
