Three DR-Based Loans Issued by ICBC, CMB, SPD Bank in Hainan Free Trade Port
On July 20, three loans using the deposit institution bond repo rate (DR) as the pricing benchmark were issued in the Hainan Free Trade Port. The loans were granted by the Hainan branch of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, the Haikou branch of China Merchants Bank, and the Haikou branch of Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, targeting different enterprise types, account types, and interest rate models.
DR is a market-based rate formed through interbank pledged repo transactions, entirely determined by market trading, reflecting the liquidity conditions and funding tightness within the banking system. Using DR as the loan pricing benchmark means loan rates are more directly linked to market funding costs, rather than primarily adjusting with the Loan Prime Rate (LPR).
