China's central bank will publicize the financing indicator for the whole society at 3:00 pm April 14.

The total social financing amount will include loans of local and foreign currencies, entrusted loans, trust loans, bank acceptance bills, corporate bonds, non-financial companies' stocks, claims from insurance companies and property investments by insurance companies.

The total social financing amount was a new concept introduced by the People's Bank of China (PBOC), the central bank, on Feb 17. It was designed to improve statistical tracking of the nation's money supply.
