Hong Kong's official foreign-currency reserve assets rose to US$205.1 billion at the end of May, from US$193.4 billion in April.
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority said Hong Kong is the world's seventh largest holder of foreign currency reserves based on the latest published figures - after Mainland China, Japan, Russia, Taiwan, India and Korea.
The total foreign currency reserve assets of US$205.1 billion represent over eight times the currency in circulation, or about 48% of Hong Kong dollar M3.
