The People's Bank of China (PBOC) set the USD/CNY central parity rate at 6.8077 for Wednesday's trading session, compared with Tuesday's fix of 6.8054 and a Reuters estimate of 6.8018.
The reference rate serves as a daily trading band guide, allowing the yuan to fluctuate within a 2% range on either side. The slight upward adjustment suggests the PBOC is allowing modest yuan depreciation against the dollar in line with market pressures.
