HKMA M3 Money Supply y/y represents the total stock of money, bank deposits and deposit certificates held by the entire Hong Kong population, including residents and non-residents. It should be noted that according to the Hong Kong classification, M3 does not include repurchase agreements (repos) and capital market funds. The M3 Money Supply growth can be accompanied with an increase in the purchasing power of population and is therefore seen as positive for the Hong Kong dollar quotes.
