HKMA warns of prolonged high interbank rates

The central bank issued the warning post unchanged US fed funds rate at 5.25-5.5%.

The central bank has warned that Hong Kong dollar interbank rates might remain high for some time.

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) said this in response to the US Fed's decision to keep the target range for the federal funds rate unchanged at 5.25-5.5%.

“The public should carefully assess and manage the relevant risks when making a property purchase, mortgage or other borrowing decisions,” the HKMA said.

The HKMA, however, said that the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate remains stable, with the city's financial and monetary markets operating smoothly.

What is Lorem Ipsum?

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
