CHINA PRESS: PBOC Expected To Cut RRR In Q4 - Analysts

CHINA PRESS

The People’s Bank of China is expected to cut the reserve requirement ratio within the year, given the continuous contraction in manufacturing PMI, prices and real-estate sector, China Securities Journal reported, citing analysts. Wang Qing, analyst at Golden Credit Rating, expects a 50 basis point cut in Q4, releasing CNY1 trillion to mainly support government-bond issuance. Li Yishuang, chief fixed income analyst at Cinda Securities, expects a Q4 RRR cut given the large amount of medium-term lending facilities maturing, while February’s reduction can still cover the long-term liquidity requirements such as financial institutions’ reserve holdings, given the sharp decline in deposit growth this year.
