Hong Kong's Exchange Fund recorded an investment income of HKD331 billion in 2025. Eddie Yue, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), stated that it is exceptional for all main components of the Exchange Fund to record positive returns in a single year. This has occurred only two times over the past 15 years in 2017 and 2020. Yue noted that the exceptional confluence of multiple favorable factors in the global financial markets in 2025 may not last for a long time. Looking ahead to 2026, factors such as global economic conditions, monetary policies of major central banks, developments in artificial intelligence, and geopolitical conflicts could affect the performance of financial markets. Should market conditions deteriorate, the financial markets could fluctuate significantly. In the face of the complex and volatile investment environment, the HKMA will continue to adhere to the principle of capital preservation first while maintaining long-term growth. It will continue to manage the Exchange Fund with prudence and flexibility, implement appropriate defensive measures, and maintain a high degree of liquidity. It will also continue its investment diversification to strive for higher long-term returns, and ensure that the Exchange Fund remains effective in achieving its purpose of maintaining monetary and financial stability of Hong Kong.
