How Hong Kong measures up?

HSBC FinFit Index:

64/100

In the 2022 FinFit Study, people of Hong Kong recorded a slightly lower score on the HSBC FinFit Index than they did the previous year. This is likely due to the impact of the pandemic and the economic slowdown. Overall, though, they remain resilient, resourceful and quick to adapt to change.

What are some key insights?

  • 59% of people of Hong Kong are “Downturn Winners” who achieved a  return of 2% or above on their liquid assets last year
  • 86% of the winners are Very Fit/Moderately Fit
  • Very Fit individuals hold an average of 4.7 types of investment & insurance products (versus 1.6 types for the Unfit)
  • 98% of the Very Fit monitor their spending, versus only 37% of the Unfit.
  • 99% of the Very Fit review their financial plans at least once a year, versus only 21% of the Unfit.
