China 10Y Yield Nears 3-Week Low

2026-06-25 02:57 By Czyrill Jean Coloma 1 min. read

China’s 10-year government bond yield fell to around 1.73% on Thursday, approaching its lowest level in three weeks, as plans by the People's Bank of China to introduce overnight reverse repo operations raised expectations of easier liquidity conditions.

The PBOC said it will conduct overnight reverse repo operations on June 29–30, providing fixed-rate overnight liquidity to better meet short-term funding needs in the banking system.

The new overnight rate will complement the existing 7-day rate of 1.4%, aligning the PBOC’s policy framework more closely with global peers.

The move follows Governor Pan Gongsheng’s remarks at the Lujiazui Forum, where he signaled plans to expand overnight operations.

Meanwhile, China launched marketing for up to €5 billion ($5.7 billion) of euro-denominated sovereign bonds, which could be its largest euro issuance on record, with initial price guidance set at 15, 22, and 33 basis points over mid-swaps for the 5-, 8-, and 12-year tranches, respectively.

China 10Y Yield Falls After PBOC Stands Pat
China's 10-year government bond yield fell to around 1.73% on Wednesday, though it remained above a recent two-week low, as investors assessed the People's Bank of China's decision to keep key lending rates unchanged. The central bank left the one-year loan prime rate (LPR) at 3.0% and the five-year LPR at 3.5% for the thirteenth consecutive month, underscoring policymakers' cautious approach as they seek to support economic growth while safeguarding financial stability. China's economy continues to show uneven momentum, with exports remaining resilient while consumer spending and the property sector remain under persistent pressure. While the central bank has reaffirmed its "moderately loose" monetary policy stance, markets increasingly expect Beijing to rely on targeted stimulus measures rather than broad-based monetary easing in the months ahead.
