The People's Bank of China issues offshore bills, signaling exchange rate stability.

Following the successful issuance of 60 billion yuan of central bank notes by the People's Bank of China in January this year,Foreign exchange rate the central bank has again made a move by issuing offshore central bank notes in the Hong Kong market, sending a signal to stabilize the exchange rate. On February 12th, the central bank announced that it would issue 40 billion yuan of 3-month and 20 billion yuan of 1-year offshore RMB central bank notes on February 14th. This issuance scale is close to January's 60 billion yuan, indicating the central bank's emphasis on exchange rate stability.

According to market experts, offshore central bank notes, as an important exchange rate management tool, can effectively adjust the liquidity of the offshore RMB market and reduce the pressure of RMB depreciation. Especially in the context of the inverted China-US interest rate spread, the RMB exchange rate is under certain downward pressure. The issuance of offshore central bank notes helps absorb liquidity, raise offshore RMB lending rates, thereby increasing the cost of shorting the RMB and stabilizing market expectations.

In addition to stabilizing the exchange rate, the issuance of offshore central bank notes also enriches the high-grade investment products in the offshore RMB market, meeting the demand of overseas investors for high-quality RMB assets. Currently, the stock of offshore central bank notes has reached 200 billion yuan, and overseas investors' interest in this market continues to rise.

Apart from the central bank's offshore central bank notes, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority will also launch a 100 billion yuan trade financing liquidity arrangement at the end of February to provide RMB funds for commercial banks, further promoting the use of RMB in the international market. This new policy arrangement is also in response to the growing demand for RMB financing from overseas investors, helping Hong Kong occupy a more important position in the global offshore RMB market.

Overall, through these measures, the central bank not only actively maintains the stability of the RMB exchange rate but also provides more high-grade RMB investment opportunities for overseas investors, demonstrating the Chinese government's determination to operate stably in the financial market.
