"If we use the tool of cutting banks' reserve requirement ratios (RRR) too frequently, it would pose big downward pressures on short-term interest rates, which is not conducive for stabilising capital flows and exchange rates," said Ma. Economists and investors have expected several reductions in RRR and the PBOC's main policy interest rate this year after China's economic growth in 2015 came in at the slowest in 25 years, though fears of further capital outflows may make interest rate cuts less palatable than RRR cuts or liquidity injections.
