Major central banks in Europe, the US and Japan are set to reduce the frequency of their emergency seven-day US dollar operations due to a lack of demand and improving market conditions.
As of 1 July, the operations will shift from being offered daily to three times per week, which is still above the pre-crisis frequency of once a week.
The enhanced US dollar operations schedule was launched in March and include the central banks of Canada, England, Japan, Switzerland, the US and Europe.
In a joint statement, the banks say they 鈥渟tand ready to re-adjust the provision of US dollar liquidity as warranted by market conditions鈥�.
The central banks will also continue to hold weekly 84-day maturity operations which will be offered weekly.
