BDx Locks in Financing for Hong Kong Hyperscale Build-Out

This latest financing is the third such facility for BDx, following successful loans for projects in Singapore and Indonesia. The funding will cover development costs and operating expenses for the new 16-megawatt site in Kwai Chung, one of the city’s fastest-growing digital infrastructure hubs. The center is being designed in close collaboration with an anchor hyperscale customer and features strict energy efficiency specifications.

“Our ability to secure this financing reflects BDx’s commitment to driving digital transformation across Asia,” said Mayank Srivastava, chief executive officer of BDx Data Centers. “This flagship facility in Hong Kong is built for scale, performance, and sustainability, and demonstrates our track record of meeting customer needs under tight timelines.”

Clifford Capital’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Murli Maiya, said the deal aligns with the firm’s focus on funding transformative infrastructure projects in the region. Lim Lay Wah, UOB’s head of sector solutions and global financial institutions, added that the transaction illustrates growing demand for green data centers and UOB’s commitment to helping businesses meet sustainability targets. SMBC’s Managing Director Luca Tonello noted that the financing underscores the bank’s dedication to tailoring debt solutions in the fast-expanding digital infrastructure sector.

Regional Ambitions and 1 GW Capacity Target

BDx’s new Hong Kong center will join a portfolio that already spans data centers and edge sites in Singapore, Indonesia, and Taiwan. The company is targeting a total deployment of 1 gigawatt of capacity across Asia to support the region’s accelerating demand for AI-driven services.
