CHF/HKD: the SNB versus the HKMA

The rate between the Swiss franc (CHF) and the Hong Kong dollar (HKD) pits two opposing monetary logics against each other: a floating currency, a safe-haven asset steered by the Swiss National Bank (SNB), and a currency pegged to the US dollar, framed by the HKMA (Hong Kong Monetary Authority).

Since 1983, Hong Kong has operated a Linked Exchange Rate System based on a currency board: the HKD is kept within a narrow band of 7.75 to 7.85 Hong Kong dollars per 1 US dollar. The HKMA defends these bounds through convertibility undertakings and an automatic adjustment of interest rates, with no appreciation leeway specific to the currency. As a result, the HKD tracks the greenback very closely: the CHF/HKD pair behaves, give or take, like the CHF/USD rate.

In practice, the CHF/HKD dynamic depends mainly on the relationship between the SNB and the US Federal Reserve: interest rate differentials, the Swiss franc's safe-haven status in times of uncertainty, and the strength of the US dollar on global markets. For a payment bound for Hong Kong — supplier, investment, expatriation or tuition costs — a few basis points on the rate can represent a noticeable difference in the amount received.

Frequently asked questions about CHF/HKD exchange

There is no universal ideal moment. As the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the US dollar, the CHF/HKD rate largely follows the movement of the Swiss franc against the greenback, itself driven by the SNB (Swiss National Bank) and the US Federal Reserve. Monitor the real rate continuously and trigger your exchange at the moment that suits you.

Since 1983, the HKMA (Hong Kong Monetary Authority) has operated a Linked Exchange Rate System based on a currency board: the Hong Kong dollar is kept within a narrow band of 7.75 to 7.85 HKD per 1 USD through convertibility undertakings and an automatic adjustment of interest rates. This stability makes the CHF/HKD pair an almost direct reflection of the CHF/USD rate.
