China's State Administration of Foreign Exchange announced on Monday that it would further facilitate overseas institutional investors to manage foreign exchange risks in the interbank bond market.

Overseas non-banking investors can choose from various domestic financial institutions to trade over the counter or indirectly enter the interbank foreign exchange market through the prime brokerage.

Overseas banking investors can also directly invest in the interbank foreign exchange market in addition to the above two channels.

Meanwhile, the administration will streamline the process for overseas institutional investors to trade in the foreign exchange derivatives market, further improve the trading mechanism, optimize trading information collection and lower the transaction costs of market players.

China will deepen the reform and opening up of the foreign exchange sector, and better serve the real economy and opening-up of the financial markets, according to the Administration.
