Chinese central bank raises reserve requirement

by Tony Sagami on May 12, 2008

in Inflation Statistics

The Chinese central bank ordered
banks to increased their reserve for the fourth time this year, increasing the reserve ratio from 16% to 16.5%.

The increase will remove around $30 billion from the Chinese banking system.

The reserve ratio has been raised a 7.5% since the start of 2007.

Funny, the communist central bankers seem to know more about fighting inflation than
the guys at the U.S. Federal Reserve.
