Hong Kong New Normal Tracking Study - More stability and less pessimism but still not the end of the tunnel
Covid-19 remains the top concern for Hong Kong residents, nearly one in four (23%) claiming it is the main challenge facing the SAR today, based on the latest poll from our New Normal tracker. Unsurprisingly, a similar proportion (21%) think inflation is the second main challenge for the Territory, with health being the third (19%).
While the relaxation of covid restrictions will help restore some normality and Hong Kong residents are less pessimistic, the Territory will continue facing headwinds in 2023. A majority of our survey respondents (70%) expect inflation to go up over the course of the year. As a result, four in 10 (41%) residents expect their disposable income and standard of living to decline over the next 12 months.
