China Reduces Key Interest Rate and Reserve Requirement to Support Economy Amid Trade Tensions

Reported about 20 hours ago

In an effort to bolster its economy affected by escalating tariffs in the US-China trade war, China has lowered its policy interest rate and the reserve requirement ratio for banks. The People's Bank of China reduced the seven-day reverse repurchase rate from 1.5% to 1.4% and plans to cut the reserve ratio by half a percentage point. These measures aim to enhance liquidity, support market stability, and guide borrowing costs lower as China prepares for upcoming trade discussions with US officials.
