But banks may have shunned the auction ? the first of four planned until mid - october ? for fear that , if their bids became known , it could suggest desperation , especially since the interest payable on the funds is at least one percentage point above base rate 但銀行們可能會回避10月中旬的四個計劃拍賣中的第一個,因為他們擔心如果出價為已知時這是鋌而走險的,尤其是這比資金的應付利息至少在基準利率的一個百分點以上。

Whether a mechanical change in the hong kong dollar base rate brought about by a change in the us fed fund s target rate will lead to corresponding changes in interbank rates , hkab deposit rates and the best lending rate is a less straightforward matter 至于港元基本利率緊隨美國聯邦基金目標利率變動,會否亦帶動銀行同業拆息銀行公會存款利率和最優惠利率作出相應調整?這問題并非三言兩語就可解釋清楚。

But i wonder whether readers are familiar with the fact that the interbank interest rates , again particularly those for short term hong kong dollar liquidity , are in turn influenced by the level of the base rate advertised in the market by us 但讀者又是否知道銀行同業拆息,尤其短期拆息,本身也會受到金管局公布的基本利率水平所影響?基本利率是持牌銀行向金管局的貼現窗借取資金所需支付的利率。

Yet a change in the prime rate is normally brought about by a change in the fed funds target rate in the us and the corresponding and immediate change in our base rate for accessing hong kong dollar liquidity through the discount window 然而,促使最優惠利率變動的原因,通常是美國聯邦基金目標利率變動,以及本港貼現窗提供港元流動資金的基本利率即時作出相應調整。

However , even though our base rate is 150 basis points higher than the fed funds target rate , it does not mean that hong kong dollar interest rates are necessarily higher than us dollar interest rates 以目前聯邦基金目標利率處于3 . 75厘計,我們的基本利率便是5 . 25厘。但即使基本利率高出聯邦基金目標利率150基點,也不代表港元利率一定會高于美元利率。
