The People’s Bank of China is likely to cut the reserve requirement ratio in Q4 to boost liquidity and stands ready to lower the medium-term lending facility rate further depending on financial data results, the Economic Information Daily reported, citing analysts. The central bank launched its outright reserve repo tool this week to smooth funding fluctuations caused by the large-scale maturity of MLFs and provide a favourable environment for the economic rebound, said Dong Ximiao, chief researcher at Merchants Union Consumer Finance. As a result, the PBOC will not make large MLF rollovers in November and December, and the facility’s status as the policy rate will be further diluted, Dong added.
