BEIJING - The People's Bank of China, the central bank, said Saturday the country had issued 5.1 trillion yuan ($773.3 billion) worth of bonds in 2010, an increase of 3.1 percent over that in 2009.
National debt, debt issued by policy banks and short-term financing bonds contributed mainly to the bond market expansion last year, said a central bank statement posted online.
The central bank also noted that the total value of bonds in China's inter-bank market soared 21.5 percent year-on-year to 15.8 trillion yuan at the end of 2010.
