Their net purchase in the market stood at 98.8 billion yuan (about 13.98 billion U.S. dollars) in November, surging 96.42 percent month on month, according to the China Foreign Exchange Trade System.

By end-November, 2,517 overseas institutional investors had entered the country's inter-bank bond market. The total net purchase volume topped 970 billion yuan in the first 11 months of this year.
