The path of US monetary policy remains quite uncertain, depending on developments in inflation trend and labour market conditions, said the Hong Kong Monetary Authority on Thursday.
The US Federal Reseave keep the target range for the federal funds rate unchanged at 3.50 to 3.75 percent, which is in line with market expectations, it said.
Hong Kong's monetary and financial markets have continued to operate in an orderly manner, it added.
The HKMA also noted that the future trend of US interest rates remains quite uncertain, which may influence the interest rate environment in Hong Kong, adding that the public should carefully manage interest rate risks when making decisions about property purchase, investment or borrowing.
The authority said it will continue to closely monitor market developments and maintain monetary and financial stability.
