March 2 – Citing the South China Morning Post, Hong Kong Financial Secretary Paul Chan said the latest medium-term forecast shows no further withdrawals from the Exchange Fund over the next five years, and the HK$150 billion withdrawal will not become a regular practice. He noted the Exchange Fund’s total assets exceed HK$4.1 trillion — the withdrawal equals just half of last year’s investment income, so it will not impact financial stability or the linked exchange rate system. Chan also revealed the government will increase long-term bond issuance to better align with infrastructure projects’ cash flow and debt maturities. The government’s debt-to-GDP ratio is expected to rise from 14.4% to around 19.9% in five years, remaining relatively low globally.
