Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The central bank is making the overnight rate its primary policy tool. This announcement caused China’s 10-year government bond yield to slip to 1.63 per cent from 1.64 per cent. The policy shift also helps dispel market unease over local developer payments in Zhuhai.
