| Abstract: | This paper examines the impact of Hong Kong's monetary policy, especially focusing on the HKMA's decision of their operation in the foreign exchange market and the response of money market interest rate. We find that the change of HKMA’s forecast for future operation in the foreign exchange market indeed impacts the interest rates. Second, the market reacts for this change in one day and this impact does not persist in the future. Last but not least, the reactions of interest rates for different maturities are different. The middle term interest rates have the greatest responses, and the short term interest rates have smallest impacts. |
