Comments from Pan Gongsheng, governor of the People’s Bank of China (PBOC).

  • The PBOC has given clear guidelines on stock buybacks and relending to boost holdings, emphasizing that credit funds must not enter the stock market illegally.
  • These measures aim to stabilize the capital market and are based on market principles; the swap facility is not direct support from the central bank.
