With the aim to achieve convenient, efficient and stable cross-border capital flows, we are working on expanding capacity to deal with other currencies at this stage so as to prepare for connection with neighbouring jurisdictions’ payment systems. The Exchange Reserve and Fiscal Reserve are important components of the public financial resources of the MSAR.
As these two reserves serve different statutory and policy functions, the AMCM has all along followed relevant legal requirements and international standards, upholding the principles of safety, stability and prudence in managing these reserves.
