The Shanghai Composite Index rose 1.31 percent to 3,061.02 points, the highest since November 11, 2010, when the barometer hit 3,147.74.
Commercial banks responded positively to a reform which may tremendously ease how the loan-to-deposit ratio, which measures the proportion of a bank’s outstanding loans to its deposits, is calculated.
