  • The 2027 release calendar runs from 26 February 2027 for January data through to 31 January 2028 for December 2027 data.

HKMA says HK markets orderly after Fed holds rates at 3.75-4%

The HKMA responded to the Federal Reserve's decision to hold rates steady, noting Hong Kong's markets remain orderly while flagging risks from the persistent interest rate differential between the two currencies. The statement is a routine market commentary rather than a policy change, but signals what the authority is watching.

  • The Fed kept the federal funds rate target range unchanged at 3.75-4% on 29 October 2026, in line with market expectations.
  • The Fed's statement cited strong economic activity, a stable labour market, and inflation that has remained elevated.
  • The HKMA said the persistent HKD-USD interest rate differential may cause carry trade activity to gradually ease the Hong Kong dollar.
  • The HKMA said the Hong Kong dollar and interbank rate outlook depends on factors including carry trade risk appetite and HKD supply-demand conditions.
  • The HKMA advised the public to carefully manage interest rate risks in decisions on property purchase, investment or borrowing.

HKMA sets statutory cyber code for designated payment system infrastructure operators

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority has published a sectoral Code of Practice under the Protection of Critical Infrastructures (Computer Systems) Ordinance for retail payment system infrastructure operators designated as critical infrastructure operators. It sets baseline requirements for protecting critical computer systems, from designation and governance through to risk assessment, penetration testing and logging. This segment covers what the Code binds, how it is enforced, and where it leans on existing frameworks.

  • The Code binds Retail Payment System Infrastructure operators designated by the Monetary Authority as Critical Infrastructure operators.
  • Breach of the Code is not itself an offence, but failure to comply with MA written directions, assessed against the Code, is an offence.
  • Security management plans must be endorsed by the Board, a delegated sub-committee or senior management, and reviewed at least once every two years.
  • System logs must be retained for a minimum of 6 months, secured so they cannot be deleted or altered, and user access rights reviewed at least annually.
  • Risk assessments must include a vulnerability assessment and a penetration test conducted by qualified professionals.
