Read today’s Ming Pao Newspaper in print and online featuring HKGFA’s Executive Vice President, Ms. Tracy Wong Harris!
In the articles, Tracy highlighted the Northern Metropolis as a critical testing ground for green tech projects and harnessing blended finance to support decarbonisation, framing it beyond a real estate and infrastructure project.
Infrastructure projects often face borrowing challenges due to high initial costs and long payback periods, particularly those with green or sustainable elements. To support Hong Kong’s sustainable development, she advocates for a public-private-philanthropic partnership (PPPP) platform to deploy catalytic capital through a 5-step financing plan to de-risk projects and scale green infrastructure projects.
Drawing on global benchmarks like debt-for-nature swaps and carbon-offset debt financing, she suggests directly incorporating multi-dimensional sustainability KPIs into local financing arrangements and encourages efforts in taxonomy alignment with other jurisdictions to reduce cross-border verification costs.
