Zusammenfassung: | This paper examines the People's Republic of China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region's 2008 Article IV Consultation. Growth has slowed in the first half of the year, as external conditions have worsened. Inflation remains elevated, driven by food prices and housing costs.

The authorities have responded with a range of measures to provide liquidity, stimulate domestic demand, and bolster confidence. |
