[ET Net News Agency, 10 March 2020] HSBC (00005) said it has launched a new tranche of
green certificates of deposit for a global asset manager. This follows the Bank's debut
green retail certificates of deposit in Hong Kong issued last December, reflecting a
growing trend of environmental, social and governance (ESG) adoption in investing.
Denominated in HKD, the Green CD was issued to Invesco Hong Kong Limited in February
2020 with a fixed coupon of 2.05% per annum for six months.
"In Asia, investors and issuers are embracing greener and more socially responsible
financial products. Hong Kong investors have shown strong interests in ESG related
products. Given our own ongoing commitment to financing the transition to a sustainable,
low-carbon economy, we are proud to use our expertise to create a range of ESG investing
opportunities for clients, from retail to asset managers," said Justin Chan, Head of
Greater China, Asia Pacific, Global Markets, HSBC. (KL)
