HONG KONG (Reuters) – Hong Kong’s economy is expected to grow 2.0% to 3.5% this year after expanding 6.4% in 2021, as social restrictions to tackle a growing COVID-19 outbreak are expected to curb activity, Finance Secretary Paul Chan said on Wednesday.
Chan unveiled the Asian financial hub’s 2022/23 budget in a video conference with legislators.
