Hong Kong, China’s local currency bond market reached a size of HKD2,770.5 billion (USD355.1 billion) at the end of the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2022. Overall growth slowed to 0.8% quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q) in Q4 2022 from 4.9% q-o-q in the third quarter as expansion in both the government and corporate bond segments moderated amid tightened liquidity conditions.
Issuance of local currency corporate bonds amounted to HKD194.1 billion in Q4 2022, down 19.7% q-o-q from the preceding quarter. Among the notable issuances in Q4 2022 was Hong Kong Mortgage Corporation’s inaugural social bond, a dual-currency issuance that included an HKD8.0 billion 2-year bond.
On 8 February, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority kept the countercyclical buffer ratio steady at 1.0%, noting that uncertainties in the global and domestic economic environment remain elevated despite initial signs of stabilization in the domestic economy.
