China is reportedly allowing some banks to offer higher interest rates on corporate U.S. dollar deposits, a move aimed at slowing yuan conversion and supporting dollar balances. The policy could damp the yuan’s recent gains by making USD deposits more attractive for corporates. The immediate impact is likely concentrated in FX and banking flows rather than a broad market move.
