Chinese banks turned net borrowers of short-term funds for the first time in seven months. The shift occurred as banks increased issuance of negotiable certificates of deposit. @business reported the change marks the first time Chinese banks have been net borrowers of short-term funds since November.
The move comes after months in which banks held excess liquidity. The increased issuance of negotiable certificates of deposit signals that the liquidity glut in the financial system may be starting to normalize, according to @business. Banks typically issue these instruments to manage short-term funding needs when internal reserves tighten.
No additional figures on the scale of borrowing or specific issuance volumes were provided in the report.
