collected by :John Miller

BEIJING--Chinese banks sold a net $14.9 billion of foreign exchange in April, up from $11.6 billion a month earlier, the country's forex regulator said Wednesday. Pressure to move money out of China has eased recently, helped by a weaker U.S. dollar and tighter capital controls. The volume of offshore financing by Chinese companies rose last month, while foreign-exchange purchases by individuals fell, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange said in a statement. The regulator said the improvement in China's economic growth and the opening of financial markets have helped to stabilize cross-border capital flows. China's forex reserves rose for the third straight month in April, suggesting that Beijing has gotten a break from dipping into its currency pile to prop up the yuan.
