I. Products for Agency Transactions

Agency transactions of treasury services refer to financial derivative transactions conducted by CDB on behalf of its clients for the purpose of fund management and debt hedging.

It meets the main hedging demands regarding interest and exchange rates of foreign currency loans and commodities, and has acquired a strong influence on the financial markets in China and overseas.

II. CDB’s Advantages in Agency Transactions of Treasury Services

(i) CDB has been assigned with sovereign credit rating. In June 2015, China Banking Regulatory Commission officially specified the regulation policy for CDB’ credit rating – this policy for CDB will be consistent and remain valid without expiration. It attests to the state’s commitment to permanent credit support for the bank. The high credit rating enables the bank to obtain high-value long-term credit at a competitive cost in derivative transactions.
