Lending to the property development sector rose 9.8 per cent, reflecting theincrease in financing of development projects by CIB and CMB. The 4.6 per centrise in property investment was largely residential mortgages to propertyholding vehicles controlled by individuals. Lending to investment companiesgrouped under the financial concerns sector rose significantly, driven by theactive investment market. The encouraging growth of the CMB loan portfolio wasreflected in rises of 14.3 per cent and 18.4 per cent in lending to thewholesale and retail trade and manufacturing sector respectively. Lending to thetransport and transport equipment sector recorded a fall of 6.5 per cent,attributable to the disposal of a part of the taxi portfolio to balance theoverall loan portfolio structure. Excluding such effect, lending to this sectorrose 5.5 per cent.

Loans for use outside Hong Kong increased by HK$6,316 million, or 39.8 per cent,over the previous year-end. This was due largely to the 50.9 per cent expansionof lending by mainland branches, which had reached HK$15,851 million at 31December 2006. Strong growth was recorded in corporate lending, driven byrenminbi loans which can be priced at a higher margin.
