## EUR/HKD: what has moved in recent months

Because the HKD is pegged to the US dollar between 7.75 and 7.85, this pair largely mirrors EUR/USD — which gained around 2.3% in thirty days, at 1.1645 on 27 August. The Hong Kong dollar itself traded around 7.84, close to the weak side of its band.

EUR

### The ECB tightened in June, then waited

On 11 June 2026 the European Central Bank raised its deposit rate by 25 basis points to 2.25% — its first hike since 2023 — in response to an imported energy shock, taking the main refinancing rate to 2.40%. On 23 July it left all three rates unchanged without committing to a path. Euro area inflation came in at 2.9% in July after 2.8% in June, and August PMIs moved clearly back into expansion (composite at 52.1). Rate markets price a further hike on 10 September at roughly 80%.

HKD

### Peg intact: the HKD tracks the dollar

The Hong Kong dollar remains bounded by the HKMA between 7.75 and 7.85 to the US dollar, without interruption since October 1983. Since mid-August 2026 it has traded around 7.84, close to the weak side of the band, and Hong Kong interbank rates mechanically follow US rates. The practical consequence: a rate against the HKD moves first and foremost with the US dollar, not with Hong Kong.

EUR → HKD

### What it means for you

Hong Kong interbank rates mechanically follow US rates: the euro appreciates here when the ECB tightens or when the dollar falls, never for local reasons. The expected ECB hike of 10 September is already largely in the price.

**Benchmark on 28 August 2026:** 1 EUR ≈ 9.1297 HKD. The converter at the top of this page shows the live rate.

The economics of the pair

## EUR/HKD: the ECB versus the HKMA

The rate between the **euro (EUR)** and the **Hong Kong dollar (HKD)** has a rare feature among the major currencies: it is not dictated by the confrontation of two independent monetary policies alone. On one side, the European Central Bank (ECB) steers the euro freely; on the other, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) keeps the Hong Kong dollar pegged to the US dollar.

Since 1983, Hong Kong has operated a Linked Exchange Rate System that keeps the HKD within a narrow band, between 7.75 and 7.85 Hong Kong dollars per 1 US dollar. The HKMA commits to buying or selling HKD at the edges of this range, via an automatic interest-rate adjustment mechanism. In practice, the HKD therefore does not float freely against the euro.

The direct consequence: the EUR/HKD rate reflects above all the movements of the EUR/USD pair. When the euro appreciates against the US dollar, it tends to strengthen against the Hong Kong dollar as well; conversely, a strong dollar drags the euro down against the HKD. Decisions by the ECB, those of the US Federal Reserve (which the HKMA effectively follows) and the economic backdrop of the eurozone are therefore the main drivers to watch before triggering an exchange.

Frequently asked questions

## Frequently asked questions about EUR/HKD exchange

There is no universal ideal day. As the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the US dollar, the EUR/HKD rate closely tracks movements in the EUR/USD pair, and therefore the monetary policy gap between the ECB and the US Federal Reserve. Monitor the real rate continuously and trigger your exchange at the moment that suits you.

Since 1983, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has operated a Linked Exchange Rate System that keeps the Hong Kong dollar within a narrow band against the US dollar, around 7.75 to 7.85 HKD per 1 USD. The HKMA commits to intervening at the edges of this range, which stabilises the HKD and reinforces Hong Kong as a leading financial hub in Asia.

As the Hong Kong dollar is linked to the US dollar, it does not float freely against the euro. The EUR/HKD rate therefore depends mainly on the euro's movements against the dollar: when the euro appreciates against the greenback, it tends to strengthen against the HKD as well, and vice versa. The pair remains sensitive to decisions by the ECB and the US Federal Reserve.
