陳茂波:詢問開設境外戶口數字不多 與人行有互換協議可用港元換美元
財政司司長陳茂波出席財經事務委員會後表示,上周與銀行界及財富管理業界人士交流時,留意到詢問開設境外戶口數字並不多,反而去年社會事件激烈時,詢問的個案則較多,而移出資金亦不多,暫未見有顯著資金外流情況,港元及美元兌換仍在港元較強區間方面。針對港版國安法出台,美方或對香港作出制裁,被問及會否影響聯繫匯率及美聯儲回購交易工具的使用,陳茂波表示有信心可捍衛聯繫匯率,雖然美國可能對香港採取制約措施,但強調對不同場景均有考慮及預案,目前大家所知就香港特殊地位實際影響不大,其他方面則要靜觀其變,強調有充分評估。
他補充,港府與人行於去年有簽訂貨幣互換協議,可以用港幣換取美元,人行表示支持港府捍衛聯繫匯率,但他無透露具體額度,僅指比之前簽署中港貨幣互換額度的4,000億元更大。
針對港版國安法的關注,陳茂波重申聯繫匯率不變,強調香港有充足外匯儲備支持聯繫匯率有序實施,而基本法亦保障資金自由進出香港及港幣的自由兌換。他指出港版國安法有迫切性及必要性,相信有助穩定香港社會治安風險,認為立法有助改善營商環境,鞏固香港國際金融中心地位。
他續指在港版國安法及中美角力下,留意到未來仍有一定機遇,包括是美國上市中資企業會更積極來港掛牌,而內地創科企業等亦會積極考慮用香港平台融資,上周MSCI指數公司將37隻追蹤指數的衍生工具由新加坡交易所轉至港交所(00388.HK),反映市場有信心,故要繼續發揮好自己香港制度優勢把握機遇。
