MNI BRIEF: PBOC Keeps LPR Unchanged For 19th Month

MNI (Singapore)
BEIJING (MNI)

China's central bank on Monday left its benchmark rates for loans unchanged for the 19th straight month, according to a statement on the People's Bank of China website.

The Loan Prime Rate, guiding companies' cost of borrowing, remains at 3.85% for the one-year maturity and 4.65% for five years. The PBOC had left the one-year Medium-term Lending Facility rate which is viewed as being close to market rates and is linked to LPR, at 2.95% on Nov. 15 when it rolled over the maturing CNY1 trillion MLF with the same amount.

Since the previous LPR reform in August 2019, the PBOC has cut 46 bps off the one-year LPR and 20bps off the five-year. In April 2020, after a 6.8% contraction in Q1 GDP, the PBOC cut the one-year LPR by 20 bps and the five-year by 10 bps, the biggest cuts since the LPR mechanism was reformed in August 2019.
