Chan Urged Homebuyers to be Mindful of Risks
Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po says the mortgage-tightening measures imposed by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority are necessary to safeguard the stability of the financial and banking systems. He also reminded prospective buyers to be aware of their risk-exposure when buying property in the residential market. Chan said buyers must be mindful of their ability to cope with potential risks that may arise, as the United States is likely to increase interest rates in June, which would affect rates in Hong Kong. Last Friday, the authority issued guidelines to banks on a new round of mortgage lending curbs as housing prices continue to soar.
