​The Ministry of Finance will issue US dollar sovereign bonds totalling US$4 billion in Hong Kong on October 19, 2021. The bonds will be issued in 3-year, 5-year, 10-year and 30-year tenors. The issuance arrangement will be announced separately later.

     A Government spokesman today (October 1) said, "The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government welcomes the Ministry of Finance's issuance of US dollar sovereign bonds in Hong Kong again. This demonstrates clearly the Central Government's support in reinforcing Hong Kong's status as an international financial centre as well as Hong Kong's unique role as the gateway for international capital to access the Mainland, which is conducive to promoting the sustainable development of the bond market in Hong Kong."
