BEIJING, Dec. 5 (Xinhua) -- China's central bank skipped open market operations via reverse repos on Thursday, citing abundant liquidity in the banking system.

As issuance payment of government bonds was offset by the system, it posts a relatively high level of liquidity at present, the People's Bank of China said in an online statement.

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.

China vowed to keep its prudent monetary policy "neither too tight nor too loose" while maintaining market liquidity at a reasonably ample level in 2019. Enditem
