That is in line with shifts in China&#8217;s financial structure, where direct financing via bonds and equities has surpassed traditional bank lending to become a key source of new funding, with credit allocation gradually moving away from more credit-intensive sectors such as property.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Monday&#8217;s operation came after PBOC Governor Pan Gongsheng told the annual Lujiazui Forum earlier this month that the central bank would increase the variety of overnight reverse repo operations and narrow the range of short-term rates to reduce money market volatility.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>In the quarterly monetary policy implementation report published in May, the central bank said it would leverage its role in guiding overnight rates to move near the policy rate level.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since the volume of overnight interbank lending by financial institutions far exceeds that of other tenors, by strengthening control over short-term interest rates, the central bank can enhance the effectiveness of monetary policy transmission throughout the financial system,&#8221; the PBOC-run publication Financial News said, citing industry experts, earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Overnight repo transactions dominate China&#8217;s interbank money market, accounting for more than 80% of repo turnover.
