TREE NEWS update: The People’s Bank of China injected a net 93 billion yuan into the banking system through open market operations on Thursday. The central bank conducted 90.5 billion yuan of 7-day reverse repos at a rate of 1.40%, unchanged from the previous operation, alongside 698.5 billion yuan of overnight reverse repos. A total of 696 billion yuan of reverse repos matured on the day.
China’s central bank injects net 93 billion yuan via open market operations
The composition matters more than the net figure: the PBOC leaned heavily on overnight reverse repos while keeping the 7-day rate unchanged, a mix that points to short-term liquidity smoothing rather than a shift in the policy stance. The steady 7-day rate signals continuity, with the overnight leg doing the tactical work around maturities. Whether that overnight-heavy pattern persists, or the central bank lengthens tenor again, is the open question for anyone tracking funding conditions.
