      Distribution rules

      The distribution mechanism of green bonds is very similar to iBond, to meet the applications of small investors as much as possible. The target issue of this Green Bond is HK$15 billion. The HKSAR Government may consider increasing it to a maximum of HK$20 billion, depending on the situation.

      • Scenario 1: When the total number of valid applications is less than HK$15 billion, the Government intends to fully satisfy all eligible applications

      • Scenario 2: When the number of valid applications exceeds 1.5 million, bonds will be issued in the form of a lottery. Each holder receives a bond (i.e. HK$0.01 million)

      • Scenario 3: If the number of valid applications is less than 1.5 million, but the total amount of valid applications is more than HK$15 billion, the revolving bond will be distributed as follows:

        • First distribution of First Hand Bonds to all eligible applicants

        • Issuance of second-hand bonds to investors applying for two or more hands if the remaining hand is permitted

        • If the remaining wager is permitted, third party bonds will be issued to investors applying for three or more

        • In this way, until the number of remaining hands is insufficient to make another distribution cycle, the remaining number will be distributed as a draw

      Note: In fairness, all repeat applications are not accepted. Investors can apply for bonds only through one placement agency.
