The People’s Bank of China (PBOC) and the Ministry of Finance (MOF) have set up a joint task force, according to a PBOC statement Wednesday. Its first official meeting discussed the maintenance of the smooth operation of the bond market and the central bank’s government bond trading.

In our view, the formation of this task force can be seen as the establishment of a mechanism for coordinating monetary and fiscal policies. We anticipate the synergy between the two will be enhanced significantly.
