China has ample room for monetary policy: central bank deputy governor

BEIJING (Reuters) – China has relatively ample room for monetary policy, the deputy governor of the country’s central bank said on Monday in remarks about follow-up policy measures to prop up the shaky recovery of the world’s second-biggest economy.

The central bank will also guide policy banks and commercial banks to support infrastructure investment projects, Liu Guoqiang, Vice Governor of the People’s Bank of China, told a press briefing.
