China central bank cuts medium-term loan rate


SHANGHAI: China's central bank lowered the cost of its medium-term loans to banks on Wednesday in a move consistent with broad policy easing measures announced a day earlier to shore up a flailing economy.

The People's Bank of China (PBOC) said it cut the rate on 300 billion yuan ($42.66 billion) worth of one-year medium-term lending facility (MLF) loans to some financial institutions to 2.00% from 2.30%.
