Tips on Overnight Interest
How is a High Overnight Interest Rate Generated?
- As of 31st Dec 2024, wide interest rate differences still remain:
- Higher yielding currencies include USD: 4.50%, GBP: 4.75%, EUR: 3.15%, and AUD: 4.35%
- Lower yielding currencies include JPY: 0.25%, and CHF: 0.5%
- The interest rate differences between the USD and JPY remain the widest amongst the major currencies：
- Buying the USD/JPY pair is equivalent to borrowing JPY at a low rate and subsequently buying the higher yielding USD to create a positive interest. Due to the wide interest rate gap between the two currencies, the effect of carry trade has been magnified
How to Earn Overnight Interests?
- Overnight interests will be generated by holding positions overnight at 6:00 a.m. Hong Kong Time (New York Winter Time) or 5 a.m. Hong Kong Time (New York Summer Time), and will be reflected in the account balance automatically (more details)
For open positions held overnight through Wednesday's Trading Close, "3-Day" overnight interest will be realized in order to account for the settlement of trades through the weekend period. - You may earn interest by buying a relatively high interest rate currency. Conversely, you will need to pay interest for holding a relatively low interest rate currency
