China’s Medium-term Lending Facility rate will be set today

돈되는 정보

I posted on this earlier, but ICYMI, the monthly PBOC Medium-term Lending Facility (MLF) rate setting is coming up today, Wednesday, 15 November 2023:

  • Due around 0115 GMT.
  • the MLF rate is currently 2.5%.

The MLF rate is a benchmark interest rate that banks in China can use to borrow funds from the People’s Bank of China for a period of 6 months to 1 year. Thart is, its a rate for the PBOC to provide medium-term liquidity to commercial banks.

  • The rate is normally announced on the 15th of each month.
  • The interest rate on the MLF loans is typically higher than the benchmark lending rate (more on these below), which encourages banks to use the facility only when they face a shortage of funds.
  • MLF loans are secured by collateral, which can be a wide range of assets including bonds, stocks, and other financial instruments. The collateral ensures that the PBOC can recover the funds if the borrower defaults on the loan.

I’ve seen basically no expectations of a rate change for this today.

The MLF rate sets the scene for the monthly Loan Prime Rate (LPR) setting on the 20th. Current LPRs:

  • 3.45% for the one year
  • 4.20% for the five year

Also from China today are economic activity data for October, I posted on this earlier also.
