In April, the business atmosphere for small and medium enterprises in Hong Kong weakened, and the overall employment situation softened.

The Finance and Economics APP learned that a spokesperson for the Hong Kong government stated that with the United States announcing a significant increase in import tariffs last month, the unfavorable factors and uncertainties in the external environment have sharply increased. The business atmosphere for small and medium-sized enterprises in Hong Kong in April weakened compared to the previous month. Overall employment situation also softened. Looking ahead, the uncertainty of US trade policy will continue to affect the economic outlook and business sentiment, despite recent slight easing of trade tensions. The Hong Kong government will continue to closely monitor the situation.
