The People’s Bank of China (PBoC) declared on Tuesday that it resumed the acquisition of sovereign bonds on the open market in October, marking its first purchase since December 2024. The central bank reported that it acquired CNY 20 billion worth of government bonds last month. This move follows comments from its governor at a recent financial forum that suggested a revival in bond acquisitions. Additionally, in another announcement, the PBoC confirmed that it would execute CNY 700 billion in three-month outright reverse repos on November 5 to ensure liquidity within the banking system.
