最新發展

香港經濟在2015年首季實質增長2.4%後,在2015第二季增速至按年增長2.8%。內部需求展現強韌,而對外環節則表現疲弱。私人消費開支由2015年首季增長5.3%提升至第二季按年增長6.0%;投資開支在2015年首季上升7.5%後,第二季再按年增長6.5%;外圍方面,整體貨物出口在2015年首季微升0.4%後,於第二季下跌3.6%,而服務出口則按年增長1.0%。2015年,香港的外部需求將受制於依然不穩的全球貿易環境,以及大部分市場的緩慢復蘇,然而本地需求應該會繼續增長。在8月最新一輪的預測中,政府將2015年全年經濟增長預測由五月的1至3%,修訂為2至3%。

Hong Kong’s economy expanded by 2.8% year-on-year in real terms in the second quarter of 2015, up from 2.4% in the preceding quarter of 2015, which was mainly attributed to the resilient domestic demand, while the external sector remained weak. Growth in private consumption expenditure grew strongly by 6.0% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2015, from 5.3% in the first quarter of 2015. Investment expenditure gained 6.5% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2015, further to the 7.5% growth in the first quarter of 2015. On the external front, total exports of goods saw year-on-year decline of 3.6%, down from an a meagre 0.4% gain in the first quarter of 2015, whereas exports of services fared better, posting year-on-year growth of 1.0% in the second quarter. For 2015, Hong Kong’s external demand is expected to be constrained by the unsteady global trade environment and slow recovery of most economies, but domestic demand will remain a stable growth driver. In the latest round of review in August, the government revised its forecast of Hong Kong’s economic growth from 1-3% to 2-3% for 2015 as a whole.

受訪港旅客人次增幅及旅客消費放緩影響,零售業銷貨額繼2014年輕微下跌0.2%後,於20151-6月按年下跌1.6%。然而勞工市場仍偏緊,截至20157月為止的3個月,經季節性調整失業率為3.3%,接近17年最低水平。同時,消費物價於2014年上升4.4%後,於20151-7月按年上升3.5%。通脹的上行風險在短期內應該有限,因為環球食品及商品價格的和緩趨勢,應會繼續令外圍的價格壓力受控,而本地成本壓力大致維持溫和。

Dragged by the visibly slower growth in tourist arrivals and weaker tourist spending, the value of retail sales, in nominal terms, dropped 1.6% year-on-year in January-June 2015, after a small decline of 0.2% in 2014. Yet the labour market conditions remain tight. The seasonally adjusted unemployment rate stood at 3.3% for May-July 2015, close to the lowest level in 17 years. Meanwhile, Hong Kong’s consumer prices rose 3.5% year-on-year in January-July 2015, after rising by 4.4% in 2014. Looking ahead, inflationary pressure should be contained in the near term, as the softening trend in global food and commodity prices should keep external price pressures in check, while local cost pressures will likely stay moderate.

2014年訪港旅客共6,080萬人次,為本地人口的8.4倍,來自中國內地的旅客佔總數的78%。訪港旅客繼2014年上升12%後,於20151-6月按年上升2.8%。來自中國內地的旅客增長則較強勁,繼2014年上升16%後,於20151-6月按年上升4.7%2014年,與入境旅遊相關的總消費金額為3,590億港元,較前一年增長8.5%

In January-June 2015, visitor arrivals to Hong Kong increased 2.8% year-on-year, after rising by 12% in 2014, while those from the Chinese mainland saw a stronger year-on-year growth of 4.7%, after rising by 16% in 2014.
