央行推出碳减排支持工具

中国人民银行11月8日宣布，推出碳减排支持工具（carbon-reduction supporting tool）。

The People's Bank of China will provide low-cost loans for financial institutions through the carbon-reduction supporting tool, and will guide those institutions to provide loans to firms in key carbon-reduction fields on the premise of independent decision-making and risk-taking. The loan interest rates provided by the financial institutions should be basically in line with the benchmark lending rates, or the loan prime rates.

中国人民银行将通过碳减排支持工具向金融机构提供低成本资金，引导金融机构在自主决策、自担风险的前提下，向碳减排重点领域内的各类企业一视同仁提供碳减排贷款，贷款利率应与同期限档次贷款市场报价利率（LPR）大致持平。
