The People's Bank of 皇冠体育app (PBOC), the central bank, on Thursday asked its local offices to ensure cash supplies amid persistent snow to meet demand for the Spring Festival, which falls on February 7.

Snow has disrupted transportation, making it hard to deliver cash to the branches.

The central bank, in a circular, urged its local offices to help commercial banks in getting or storing cash.
