BEIJING, Sept. 24 (Xinhua) -- China's central bank conducted 460 billion yuan (about 65.24 billion U.S. dollars) of 14-day reverse repos at an interest rate of 1.85 percent Tuesday.
The move aims to keep liquidity reasonable and ample in the banking system at the end of the quarter, 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. ■
