香港金融管理局今日(5月29日)發表的統計數字顯示,98年4月份整體存款、貸款和墊款均稍微下跌。附表1列出4月份的摘要數字以及過去數月的比較數字。
存款
整體存款在98年3月份上升0.1%後,於4月份下跌0.4%。存款減少,是由於外幣存款下跌1.1%,抵銷了港元存款0.2%的升幅。於98年4月底,港元存款佔整體存款的比率上升至57.7%,而3月底則為57.4%。
港元存款已連續第三個月上升。4月份港元定期存款息率雖然稍降,但定期存款仍上升0.8%,足以抵銷往來及儲蓄存款分別錄得的0.7%及1.6%的跌幅。
外幣存款方面,美元存款連續第二個月下跌,跌幅為1.2%。非美元外幣存款繼3月份下跌0.1%後,亦於4月份再跌1.0%。
貸款及墊款
由於海外貸款於3月份大幅減少14.2%後,於本月繼續收縮0.3%,整體貸款和墊款在4月份下跌0.1%。另一方面,隨著本地經濟活動持續放緩,本地信貸需求減弱,貿易融資貸款下跌1.2%,而其他貸款則微升0.1%。
港元貸款在4月份上升0.4%,外幣貸款則進一步下跌0.6%。由於港元貸款增長較港元存款為快,港元貸存比率由3月底的111.3%上升至4月底的111.5%。
貨幣供應
4月份港元貨幣供應M1下跌0.9%,其中公眾持有的現金下跌1.3%,而往來存款則下跌0.7%。另一方面,港元貨幣供應M2和M3同告上升0.2%。以截至4月份為止的12個月計,港元貨幣供應M1下跌10.8%,但港元貨幣供應M2和M3則分別上升4.6%和4.4%。
