The Hong Kong Trade Development Council raised its 2026 Hong Kong export
forecast, now projecting at least 20% growth for the year. In its Q2 2026 Export
Confidence Index the HKTDC reported the current-conditions index at 51.0 and the
expectations index at 52.4, both back above the 50 threshold, signaling
improved exporter confidence despite ongoing US trade-policy adjustments and
evolving geopolitical risks.
