S&P: Home Price Rise Not Likely to Cause Financial Crisis
Standard & Poor’s said the current home prices in Hong Kong are supported by capital inflow from the mainland and the low-interest environment, as well as demand for housing exceeding supply. The chance of causing another financial turmoil by local property market is low. But it expects home prices to fall 5 to 10 percent this year. It noted that the rate hike cycle and the increase in unemployment could adjust home prices. Standard & Poor’s said the sovereign rating of Hong Kong is AAA, up from A+ during the period 1996 to 1998.
