The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) today (Wednesday) published the December 2009 issue of its Quarterly Bulletin.

This Quarterly Bulletin carries the following feature article and regular articles on the banking and monetary environment during the third quarter of 2009.

  • Results of surveys on selected debt securities and off-balance sheet exposures to derivatives and securitisations - indicating that the overall exposure of authorized institutions to structured credit products and credit derivatives remained insignificant, and the activities were concentrated in a few institutions.

The Quarterly Bulletin can be viewed on and downloaded from the HKMA website at http://www.info.gov.hk/hkma/eng/public/qb_index.htm.

To reflect year-end and mid-year economic and banking statistics in the analyses, the HKMA is going to publish its Half-Yearly Monetary and Financial Stability Report every March and September. The next issue will be published in March 2010.
