China Reserve Requirement Ratio for Large Banks

In China, Cash Reserve Ratio includes data on the reserve requirement ratio (RRR) set by the People's Bank of China (PBoC) for large commercial banks. The RRR is the percentage of customer deposits that banks must keep in reserve and not lend out. For major banks like ICBC, BOC, ABC, and CCB, this ratio is an important tool the PBoC uses to manage money supply, control inflation, and guide the economy. Changes in the RRR reflect the central bank's monetary policy direction and impact how much banks can lend.
