On October 13, BOC HONG KONG rose 3.06% in regular trading, reaching HK$52.1 with turnover of HK$507 million. Hong Kong bank stocks broadly strengthened into the close, with Standard Chartered up over 3% and HSBC Holdings up nearly 2%.

The movement was driven by reports that certain banks have raised mortgage rebates to 2% and 2.5%, notably above prior market levels. Market participants anticipate that if the Federal Reserve proceeds with further rate hikes, upward pressure on Hong Kong dollar interest rates could support bank net interest income. BOC HONG KONG, as a major local integrated banking group, continues to benefit from regional transformation and incremental growth in offshore RMB business, with several brokers maintaining positive ratings.
