Xinhua, Beijing :
China’s central bank pumped 150 billion yuan (about 21 billion U.S. dollars) into the financial system Friday.
The People’s Bank of China injected 150 billion yuan into the market through 14-day reverse repos at an interest rate of 2.65 percent.
With no reverse repos maturing Friday, this led to a net injection of 150 billion yuan.
A reverse repo is a process in which the central bank purchases securities from commercial banks through bidding, with an agreement to sell them back in the future.
The country will continue to implement a proactive fiscal policy and prudent monetary policy, according to the annual Central Economic Work Conference held last week.
