This report presents findings from a city-wide public survey that explores the career interests of young adults (aged 18-25) in Hong Kong towards the Green and Sustainable Finance (GSF) sector. The report evaluates the city’s evolving GSF capabilities and talent ecosystem, identifies the key enablers and barriers facing youth entrants, and sets out strategies to attract, engage, and prepare the next generation of GSF professionals. The insights and recommendations are to empower education providers, industry leaders, government bodies, and youth organizations as Hong Kong advances its determination to align finance with environmental and social goals.
