Is HKD fixed to USD?
I understand that you may have some confusion regarding the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) and its relationship with the US Dollar (USD). So, let me clarify this for you. Are you asking if the Hong Kong Dollar is pegged to the US Dollar? If so, the answer is yes. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority maintains a policy of linking the value of the Hong Kong Dollar to the US Dollar at a rate of approximately 7.80 HKD to 1 USD. This system, known as the Linked Exchange Rate System, has been in place since 1983 and has helped to maintain stability in the Hong Kong economy. However, it's important to note that while the HKD is pegged to the USD, it is not a fixed exchange rate system, and the HKD can still fluctuate within a narrow range around the pegged rate. Does this help answer your question?
