BEIJING -- China started the launch of 28 billion yuan (3.72 billion U.S. dollars) of book-entry treasury bonds on Thursday, the 16th batch of its kind this year, said the Ministry of Finance (MOF).

The one-year T-bonds, with a fixed annual yield of 2.95 percent, will be sold via the national inter-bank bond market, the stock market and commercial banks from Sept. 13 to 18, and will be available for trading on the stock market and over the counters of designated commercial banks from Sept. 20.

China has issued a total of 488 billion yuan of book-entry treasury bonds this year.
