On 6th September, 2013 , the long-expected Chinese government bond futures are back , after an 18-year halt, since the government pledges to diversify portfolios for investors and keep liberalizing interest rates.
The China Financial Futures Exchange (CFFEX) released a announcement on 5th September 2013, setting the listing benchmark prices for three 5-year government bond futures contracts .In order to prevent and resolve any possible market risks to ensure it would be launched and traded smoothly,the daily fluctuation range for government bond futures contracts is controlled at about 4 percent of the listing benchmark prices on the first trading day.
