DAS (Digital Asset Series) 2022 – Session #3 : ESG, Impact and Social Good with Digital Asset
Co-hosted by : Hong Kong Digital Finance Association, Asia Pacific Digital Economy Institute
Supporting Organization : City University of Hong Kong – EMBA
In June 2022, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX) indicated plans to diversify its business and offer more new asset classes such as digital assets, environmental, social and governance (ESG) investments to support market trends and demand.
HKEX’s support for sustainable investing and digital assets has boosted service adoption and market participation by institutional investors. In 2021, HKEX-listed sustainability, green, social, transition or sustainability-related bonds raised a total of US$36.2 billion. Bloomberg estimates that global ESG assets under management will reach $41 trillion by the end of 2022. Family offices and asset owners in Asia Pacific regions such as Hong Kong and Singapore are increasingly focusing on digital assets. We are honored to have the keynote speakers and panelists of this symposium share their insights on the topic of “ESG, Impact and Social Good with Digital Asset”.
