Timeline of China's recent measures to stabilise yuan near key level
China's yuan has been under depreciation pressure this year amid rising headwinds for the broad economy, and an escalating Sino-U.S. trade dispute also heightened worries over growth outlook. The market's focus has now shifted to whether the central bank will firmly defend that level or let the yuan weaken further, and how much. ** Nov 7 - The PBOC sells its first yuan-denominated bills in Hong Kong, raising 20 billion yuan ($2.88 billion) and giving it a new tool to manage the currency in offshore markets as it faces further pressure.

China to step up funding support for private firms
China's central bank will step up funding support for private firms including developing an equity financing tool, its chief, Yi Gang, said on Tuesday, the latest step to support a slowing economy pressured by a trade dispute with the United States.

Analysis: Lost in transmission - China's small firms get more loans on paper but not in reality
Beijing is keen to show results after four rounds of policy easing, so China's big banks are playing along, highlighting their efforts to boost lending to cash-starved small firms, offering collateral waivers and setting loan targets. The health of millions of small firms, most privately owned, is crucial to China's efforts to ward off a sharp slowdown and mass job losses while fighting a bitter trade war with the United States. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) has cut the amount of cash commercial lenders must hold as reserves four times since January.

China leaves rates steady after Fed as two economies diverge
China's central bank left short-term rates unchanged on Thursday, choosing not to follow a benchmark interest rate rise by the U.S. Federal Reserve despite the risk that it could that it could put renewed pressure on the yuan. The move by the People's Bank of China (PBOC) means that it did not immediately adjust borrowing costs for interbank loans after the U.S. Federal Reserve raised its key rate overnight. While the PBOC had been expected to stand pat and has not always followed the Fed in lockstep, the decision highlights diverging policy paths for the world's largest economies, with China's economy slowly losing momentum and facing more pressure from escalating U.S. trade tariffs.

China more confident after stabilising yuan, seen cutting reserve ratio soon
SHANGHAI/BEIJING, Sept 21 (Reuters) - China's ability to stabilise the yuan in recent weeks despite weak economic data and a further escalation in its trade war with the United States is reinforcing expectations that the central bank will cut banks' reserve ratios again within weeks. Such a move would underscore shifting policy priorities in Beijing, with growth promotion now on par with, if not trumping, a multi-year campaign to reduce leverage and risks in the financial system. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) has made three targeted cuts so far this year to bank reserve requirement ratios, or RRR, to free up more funds and encourage banks to continue to lend, particularly to smaller firms which are facing strains from the slowing economy.

Trade war could force heavier hand from China on yuan
China's central bank may have to decide soon whether to intervene more forcefully to support the wobbling yuan currency as the United States readies more sweeping tariffs on Chinese goods. After tinkering around the edges while the yuan fell for four straight months, the People's Bank of China (PBOC) recently signalled it was not comfortable with further losses and managed to steady the currency before it tested the sensitive 7-per-dollar level. President Donald Trump's administration could slap tariffs on another $200 billion of Chinese imports as early as this week, the latest punitive measures aimed at forcing Beijing to improve market access, cut industrial subsidies and slash its huge trade surplus with the United States.

Reuters•3 months agoTrade tensions cast shadow even as China's big banks bag more profits
Agricultural Bank of China (AgBank) (1288.HK), the country's third-largest lender, expects its asset quality to stabilise in the second half, but said it had increased provisions as trade tensions threaten the global economy. The comments come after the United Stated and China last week activated another round of duelling tariffs on $16 billion (12.41 billion pounds) worth of each country's goods. Economists reckon that every $100 billion of imports hit by tariffs would cut global trade by around 0.5 percent and impact China's economic growth in 2018 by 0.1 to 0.3 percentage points.
