The People's Bank of China said it conducted 5 billion yuan (about 699 million U.S. dollars) of seven-day reverse repos at an interest rate of 1.9 percent.
The move is aimed at keeping liquidity reasonable and ample in the banking system, the central bank said.
A reverse repo is a process in which the central bank purchases securities from commercial banks through bidding, with an agreement to sell them back in the future.
