Word in Use

From: Hong Kong Monetary Authority,

Composite Interest Rate: End of July 2016, 18 August 2016

2016年7月底综合利率, 2016年8月18日

• 综合利率是根据应注意综合利率只反映平均利息支出，并未涵盖借出贷款涉及的其他成本，如营运成本（如员工及租务支出）、信贷成本及对冲成本。
• It should be noted that the composite interest rate represents only average interest expenses. There are various other costs involved in the making of a loan, such as operating costs (e.g. staff and rental expenses), credit cost and hedging cost, which are not covered by the composite interest rate.

Notes

• A bond is 债券, hence corporate bonds are 公司债券. municipal bonds are 市政债券, and sovereign bonds are 主权债券.
