BEIJING, March 4 — China’s central bank conducted 38.2 billion yuan (about 5.32 billion U.S. dollars) of seven-day reverse repos at an interest rate of 1.5 percent on Tuesday. The move aims to keep liquidity in the banking system at an adequate level, the central bank said. 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.
