Hong Kong’s credit card lending landscape shifted sharply in the first quarter of 2025. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority reports a 5.8% contraction in total card receivables, reversing the previous quarter’s 7.9% surge fueled by seasonal spending.

Delinquency metrics show early warning signs as the combined troubled-loan ratio climbed to 0.42%. This pullback in consumer credit coincides with broader macroeconomic uncertainties, though cryptocurrency markets remain decoupled from traditional finance tremors.
