The People’s Bank of China maintained its key lending rates at record lows for a 12th straight month in May 2026, matching market expectations. The move reflected caution over the fallout from the conflict in the Middle East, even as growth momentum has recently sputtered, while consumer and producer price pressures accelerated amid higher energy prices and supply chain disruptions linked to the conflict.

The decision came amid weakening economic data, with industrial output growing at its slowest pace since 2023 and retail sales rising at the weakest rate in four years.
