According to the introduction, the 1-year HKD 2 tokenized green bond was priced yesterday, with a yield of 4.05%. This issuance is on a private blockchain network, with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) Debt Instruments Central Clearing and Settlement System (CMU) serving as the settlement and delivery system for the bonds, while the platform is Goldman Sachs' tokenized platform GS DAPTM.
