Standard Chartered has issued banknotes in Hong Kong continuously since 1862, making it one of only three commercial banks still authorized to do so under the territory's unusual currency arrangement — where note issuance is handled by licensed banks rather than a central bank, with the Exchange Fund acting as a passive backstop. The 2018 series marked a design refresh across all denominations, printed by Giesecke+Devrient in Leipzig, the same German security printer the bank has used across multiple series cycles.
Paper substrate on this run is notable given that polymer had already been adopted by neighboring issuers; Standard Chartered retained conventional paper through the 2023 print dates.
