HSBC H-Plan Mortgage
HSBC's HIBOR-linked mortgage (H-Plan) charges 1-month HIBOR + 1.3% with a rate cap at P - 3.5% (currently around 3.0% effective rate), making it the benchmark product for prime HK property buyers. HSBC offers cash rebates of up to 2.2% of the loan amount for new mortgages, partially offsetting legal and stamp duty costs. The bank's Mortgage Master tool provides real-time rate monitoring and early repayment flexibility with no redemption penalty after the 2-year lock-in period — a key advantage in a shifting rate environment.
Hang Seng Bank H-Plan Mortgage
Hang Seng (a HSBC Group subsidiary) mirrors the HIBOR + 1.3% H-Plan structure but typically offers slightly more generous cash rebates — up to 2.3% — and has historically been more willing to approve high-LTV transactions under the Mortgage Insurance Programme (MIP). For first-time buyers using HKMC mortgage insurance to access 90% LTV financing, Hang Seng's dedicated mortgage insurance processing team delivers faster approvals and better pre-approval communication than most competitors.
Bank of China HK H-Plan Mortgage
BOC HK offers a HIBOR + 1.3% H-Plan with one of the most competitive cash rebate schedules in the market — up to 2.5% for loan amounts above HK$5 million — and a P-plan alternative at P - 3.5% for borrowers who prefer rate predictability. BOC HK is the preferred lender for Mainland Chinese buyers and Hong Kong permanent residents with income in CNY, offering bilingual documentation and Mainland income acceptance. A dedicated GBA mortgage desk supports cross-border buyers from Guangdong province.
Standard Chartered Mortgage
Standard Chartered differentiates via its Priority Banking mortgage pricing — clients with HK$1M+ in deposits receive preferential HIBOR + 1.28% pricing (versus the standard 1.3%) and enhanced rebates of up to 2.0%. The bank's online mortgage calculator is the most detailed in the market, providing amortisation breakdowns, total interest cost projections, and rate sensitivity analysis. Standard Chartered also offers a unique 10-year fixed-rate segment for buyers seeking long-term cost certainty, currently priced at approximately 3.5% p.a.
DBS Home Loan
DBS Hong Kong targets digital-native homebuyers with its fully online mortgage pre-approval — a credit decision in 3 business days without a branch visit. Rates follow the HIBOR + 1.3% standard with cash rebates up to 1.8%. DBS uniquely offers a Mortgage Offset account that allows borrowers to park savings in a linked deposit account, with the balance offsetting the outstanding mortgage principal for interest calculation purposes — a structure that can save material interest costs for cash-rich borrowers awaiting investment deployment.
