The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) announced today (September 30) that the total assets of the Exchange Fund amounted to HK$3,559.7 billion as at August 31, 2016, HK$20.6 billion lower than that at the end of July 2016. Foreign currency assets decreased by HK$27.6 billion while Hong Kong dollar assets increased by HK$7.0 billion.

The decline in foreign currency assets was mainly due to a decrease in unsettled purchases of securities. The rise in Hong Kong dollar assets was mainly due to the increase in market value of Hong Kong equities.

The Currency Board Account shows that the Monetary Base at the end of August 2016 was HK$1,608.9 billion, increased by HK$0.6 billion, or 0.04%, from the end of July 2016. The rise was mainly due to an increase in the outstanding amount of Certificates of Indebtedness.

The amount of Backing Assets decreased by HK$1.0 billion, or 0.1%, to HK$1,721.3 billion. The decrease was mainly attributable to valuation losses, which was partly offset by the issuance of Certificates of Indebtedness and interest from investments. The backing ratio decreased from 107.09% at the end of July 2016 to 106.98% at the end of August 2016.
