China's central bank skips reverse repos Tuesday

The People's Bank of China (PBOC), the country's central bank, skipped open market operations via reverse repos Tuesday.

The banking system reports reasonable and sufficient liquidity at present, the PBOC said in an online statement.

As no reverse repos matured Tuesday, there is no net liquidity withdrawal from or net liquidity injection into the banking system.
