Total subscriptions amounted to 24.8 billion euros, nearly five times the offering amount.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">This fully demonstrates international investors&#8217; firm confidence in the Chinese market, according to experts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">&#8220;China&#8217;s position as the world&#8217;s second largest economy, combined with its substantial foreign exchange reserves and fiscal capacity, provides fundamental credit strengths that appeals to global institutional fixed income investors, [providing] diversification benefits for international portfolio managers. Chinese sovereign bonds provide geographic and currency diversification,&#8221; said Olivier Belorgey, Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">&#8220;China is the second largest bond market in the world, so quite an amazing and important market for financial markets. It&#8217;s also very well connected to global financial markets and now we can see a lot of international investors want to get exposure to the development of China businesses,&#8221; said Pierre Schoonbroodt, Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Luxembourg Stock Exchange.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">&#8220;The continued high level of international recognition for China&#8217;s euro-denominated sovereign bonds is in effect supported by the strong fundamentals of the Chinese economy. China is the world&#8217;s second-largest economy, and its long-term positive economic trend remains unchanged, providing a solid guarantee for RMB assets and sovereign credit,&#8221; said Liu Wei, Deputy General Manager of the Investment Banking Center under the Corporate Finance and Investment Banking Department at the Head Office of Bank of China.<\/p>\n<p>      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8486638_1782544276003_a.jpg.webp\" class=\"image-lightbox\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-mainpost\" data-caption=\"China's sovereign bond sales in Luxembourg draw strong investor demand\"><br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8486638_1782544276003_a.jpg.webp\" alt=\"China's sovereign bond sales in Luxembourg draw strong investor demand\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"14\">China&#8217;s sovereign bond sales in Luxembourg draw strong investor demand<\/p>\n<p>      <\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">China has approved a record-high number of 40 types of innovative medical devices in 2026, said a report released by the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing (CFLP) on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">The report on the development of China&#8217;s medical device supply chain said that as of June 18 this year, a total of 431 types of innovative medical devices had been approved in China.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">These include the 40 newly approved in 2026, a record high, the report said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\" class=\"font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"16\">The industrial market size of China&#8217;s medical device sector reached over 1.2 trillion yuan (about 180 billion U.S. dollars) in 2025, marking a year-on-year increase of 1.12 percent, said the report.<\/p>\n<p>      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8486640_1782544299255_a.jpg.webp\" class=\"image-lightbox\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-nextpost\" data-caption=\"China approves record-high number of innovative medical devices in 2026: report\"><br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/8486640_1782544299255_a.jpg.webp\" alt=\"China approves record-high number of innovative medical devices in 2026: report\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption font-size-scaler-control\" data-font=\"14\">China approves record-high number of innovative medical devices in 2026: report<\/p>\n<p>      <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"China&#8217;s sovereign bond sales in Luxembourg have drawn strong investor demand, with experts saying the response reflected confidence&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9119,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4],"tags":[2276,44,5],"class_list":["post-9118","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-luxembourg","tag-cctvplus-news","tag-china","tag-luxembourg"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@lu\/116820950775690022","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9118","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9118"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9118\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9119"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9118"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9118"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/lu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
