The Hong Kong Monetary Authority published today (15 February) the credit card lending survey results for the fourth quarter of 2023.
Total card receivables increased by 8.5% in the fourth quarter to HK$160.1 billion at end-December 2023, mainly driven by festive spending and salaries tax payment.
The combined delinquent and rescheduled ratio edged up to 0.34% at end-December 2023 from 0.33% at the previous quarter-end. The quarterly charge-off ratio increased slightly to 0.49% from 0.47% in the previous quarter.
