At a 12.70 price-to-earnings ratio, BOC Hong Kong stock offers a valuation reference for investors as the Hong Kong listing finishes its latest session. The dividend yield stood at 0.05 percent, while the stock cost EUR 5.68 at Lang & Schwarz on October 16, 2026 at 5:51 p.m. CEST, down 0.59 percent versus the HKEX prior close of October 15, 2026.
Valuation sets the frame
BOC Hong Kong's market capitalization was HKD 530.2 billion on October 16, 2026. Its price-to-earnings ratio of 12.70 was below HSBC's 13.70, while The Bank of East Asia traded at 14.50 on the same date.
The comparison does not resolve the investment case by itself. It places BOC Hong Kong between two Hong Kong-listed banking benchmarks on valuation, while the very small reported dividend yield keeps income from being the main numerical feature of the share profile.
Price position and trading range
The home-market quote stood at HKD 50.15 on October 16, 2026 at 4:08 p.m. HKT, down 0.59 percent from HKD 50.45. The 52-week range was HKD 36.04 to HKD 53.85, putting the latest Hong Kong price 6.87 percent below the high and 39.17 percent above the low.
Trading volume reached 11,215,160 shares against an average of 11,277,064. That places the session volume 0.55 percent below its average, a modest difference that adds context to the daily move.

What the figures leave open

Its headquarters are in Hong Kong and the group serves customers across Hong Kong, mainland China and international markets.
