China: Central bank manages USD1.54b of reverse repos


(MENAFN)China's central bank on Thursday, March 4th, managed 10 billion Yuan (about USD1.54 billion) of reverse repos to sustain reasonably ample liquidity in the banking system.

According to a report on the website of the People's Bank of China, the interest rate for the seven-day reverse repos was put 2.2 percent.

With 20 billion reverse repos hitting on the same day, the move led to a net liquidity removal of 10 billion yuan from the marketplace.

A reverse repo is a procedure in which the central bank buys securities from commercial banks through bidding, with an accord to sell them back in the future.
