The theme of the 2026-27 Budget, the fourth Budget of the current-term Government, is "Driving High-quality, Inclusive Growth with Innovation and Finance".

 

"Over the past year, as a result of the booming economy and capital market, our tax revenue has increased. Coupled with the reinforced fiscal consolidation programme gradually bearing fruit, our public finances have improved sooner than expected," Mr Chan said.

 

The Financial Secretary revealed that Hong Kong's Consolidated Account was expected to register a surplus of $2.9 billion in the current fiscal year, instead of a deficit of about $67 billion as originally estimated. The Operating Account for 2025-26, which was originally estimated to record a deficit of about $3 billion, will register a surplus of $51.3 billion, he said.

 

It was also confirmed that Hong Kong's economy expanded by 3.5% in 2025, with growth forecast to be between 2.5% and 3.5% for 2026.
