March 23 (Reuters) - HSBC Holdings said on Thursday it was leaving its best lending rate in Hong
Kong unchanged at 5.625%, despite a hike of 25 basis points in
the base rate charged through the overnight discount window of
the city's de facto central bank.
Earlier on Thursday, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA)
lifted the rate to 5.25%, hours after a rate rise of the same
size by the U.S. Federal Reserve.
