Chinanews.com client April 3 (Zuo Yukun) For the issue of lowering the benchmark interest rate for deposits, on the 3rd, Liu Guoqiang, deputy governor of the People's Bank of China, stated at a press conference that deposit interest rates are the ballast stone of the interest rate system. Get up and think more. Now the CPI is significantly higher than the one-year deposit rate. The deposit rate is 1.5% and the CPI is 5.3%. This issue needs to be considered. In addition, economic growth, internal and external balance factors, and whether interest rates are too low will increase pressure on currency devaluation. In particular, the deposit interest rate has a more direct relationship with ordinary people and can be used as a tool for monetary policy, but it must be fully evaluated and considered by the people.
