CPD Webinar - “Green Legal Issues” Webinar (2) – Green / ESG Financing

This webinar is organised by the Hong Kong Green Building Council.

Programme Highlights

As property and construction companies accelerate on their Advancing Net Zero trajectory, their “green” legal rights, obligations and risks are ever increasing. These may arise from (i) increasingly stringent government “green” regulations; and (ii) more and more “green” contractual rights and obligations created by themselves in various domains, namely financing, technology licensing and business collaborations. 

In this series of three-part legal webinars, legal specialists from the international law firm Baker McKenzie, along with sustainability practitioners are invited to convey "green-related" legal and commercial issues across different aspects to the participants. The second part of the webinars, which will be held on 21 February 2024, will cover the following three topics:


“Green Legal Issues” Webinar (2) – Green / ESG Financing


1. Market updates on various types of Green / ESG Financing: green loan, social loan, sustainability-linked loan and financing facilities;

2. Tips and challenges of Green / ESG Financing from commercial, legal and compliance perspectives;

3. A closer look at the key legal provisions and issues that arise in different types of Green / ESG Financing. 

Speakers: 

Mr Simon LEUNG, Partner - Banking & Finance, Baker McKenzie

Ms Julie WONG, General Manager - Sustainability, Hysan Development Company Limited
