The Hong Kong government announced the issuance of the 2026 Silver Bond series, a financial product specifically targeting residents aged 60 and older. The initial offering is set at HK$500 billion, with the potential to reach HK$550 billion based on demand. The bonds feature a guaranteed minimum interest rate of 4.25% with semi-annual payouts over a three-year term.

Subscription is scheduled to take place from August 21 to September 4, 2026. While individual investors may apply for up to HK$1 million in units, experts suggest that high demand often results in individual allocations being capped between HK$200,000 and HK$250,000. The bonds do not have a secondary market, but allow for redemption at face value plus accrued interest prior to maturity.
