In order to contend with the US Dollar, China’s central bank has devalued the Yuan nearly 2% in August 2015.This bank’ policy was seemed to be a wave to the Chinese market, even the economic market all around the world, which brought a series of fluctuation and impact to the economy. Why china took this monetary action to face with the problem from the US dollar (What are the factors)? What is the (Positive or negative) influence will be aroused in the short term by this Chinese Yuan depreciation? What will be happen if this devaluation last in the further and what will be affected by this monetary policy in the long term? The following text will answer and analyse these three questions.

So it is easy to conclude that china’s economic markets are sluggish and weak, for these reasons, China should adopt this monetary strategy to deal with these series of problems, and keeping the healthy and steady growth in economic markets. On the other hand, China wanted to increase the monetary (Yuan) liquidity, further, wanted Yuan to become international reserve-currency. Broadly speaking, China hoped to consolidate its central position in the global economic markets. In conclusion, pulling the healthy and steady growth internally and pushing Chinese monetary (Yuan) circulate in the international economic market, externally are the two key factors drove China to devalue Yuan.
In the short term, this depreciation action will bring varying degree of positive and negative impact in China and Global world. In the aspect of positive impact, Chinese aggregate demand will go up considerably in the short run. Aggregate demand is the total level of spending in the economy and consists of four elements: consumer spending (C), private investment (I), government expenditure on goods and services (G) and expenditure on exports (X) less expenditure on imports (M), Thus AD=C+I+G+X-M. (Sloman, Wride and Garratt, 2015). According to the Diagram 1 (Tradingeconomics.com, 2015), It is obvious to find that after July, 2015, China’s export expenditure increased significantly, especially in August when China secondly devalued Yuan,
For the last twenty eight years, China has been quickly growing into one of the largest economies in the world. China has accomplished this feat, in part, by radically changing their policies on trade and free market interactions with other countries. During this process, China has bought approximately one hundred trillion dollars of United States debt in the form of Treasury bills, notes, bonds, and Inflation Protected Securities (Amadeo). This debt has given China leverage against the United States which has enabled China to keep the value of the United States dollar high, while keeping the value of the Chinese yuan low. As the inflation of the dollar continues to negatively affect the
These effective strategies helped Hong Kong overcome the financial crisis. All these facts fully demonstrated that China is a responsible big country. After the Asia financial crisis, the importance of China's economy has been brought into focus; China's neighboring countries have begun to recognize the influence of the Renminbi.
In conclusion, I think that China should change its policy because it is damaging not only the U.S. economy but the economy globally. Countries such as the United States are still recovering from the economic recession we are still leaving in. It is obvious that if China let the Yuan appreciate their exports will decrease and imports will increase making their trade surplus to decrease. If this happens international countries will be grateful because by this happening means that their export will increase and employment will increase. Countries should avoid doing currency manipulation or artificially devaluing their currency because it just hurts the global economy and it promotes other countries to do the same – it hurts everyone.
Since July 21, 2005, China has adopted a managed floating rate regime based on market supply and demand with reference to a basket of undisclosed currency. The daily trading price of the U.S. dollar against RMB in the foreign exchange market will be allowed to float within a band of +/->0.3% around the central parity published by People’s Bank of China. The signal was initially interpreted by the international market as an indication that China would embark on a gradual shift toward increased flexibility which eventually adopt a floating exchange rate regime where the RMB will appreciate much against US dollar. However, they soon
monetary policy of devaluing the Yuan and the threat of the Federal Reserve raising interest
In 2013, America imported over 440,433.5 million dollars’ worth of goods from China but only exported 122,016.3 million dollars. (U.S. Census Bureau Foreign Trade) If America and other countries trade so frequently with China and rely so heavily on Chinese manufacturing, production, and innovation, then the aspect of currency manipulation within China and its potential negative effects on world trade is a very significant topic of importance and reason to research the subject. Our
China, the largest growing market in the world, currently has a policy regarding monetary regulation that allows the Yuan to “float”. This has seen the Yuan appreciate by approximately 24% over the past few years. Today, the exchange rate between the Chinese Yuan and the American Dollar is approximately 6.3 Yuan to 1 Dollar. Some argue that China should revalue the Yuan again the dollar, establishing a more fixed exchange rate. Others believe that current should allow
The monetary policies of USA and China is analyzed here from the perspective of their implementing bodies, their choice of instruments, and their means of setting their interest rates. The analysis reveals that there are immense differences between the two countries resulting from the nature and degree of influence from their respective domestic political systems. The paper
Finally given the slowing economy in Asia the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has reclassified the yuan. Previously the IMF considered it to be “substantially undervalued” compared to other currencies. The IMF has softened its tone toward the Chinese yuan and it is now considered “moderately undervalued”. This new designation makes it harder for the United States government to make a case against and therefore policies to target the imports based on the Chinese yuan. (Davis, 2012)
This document will examine how successful was the government and Central Bank of China during 2013 and 2014. The extent of this report only allows the analysis and explanation of some of the main macroeconomic policies implemented in those years in order for China to either continue or overcome its economic situation.
The China’s central bank began to roll out money policy as the People’s Bank of China sold three-month bills at a higher interest rate for the first time in 19 weeks, as reported by Bloomberg (2010). The central bank previously have loosen monetary policy as it kept its benchmark one-year lending rate at a five-year low of 5.31 percent after five reductions in the last four months of 2008 and in the first 11 months of 2009 allowed a record 9.21 trillion of new bank loans.
Secondly, the fixed dollar-pegged exchange rate system and monetary policy, the independence of the existence of a fundamental conflict, undermine the effectiveness of monetary policy cannot meet the needs of economic development. Monetary policy autonomy is essential for China’s macroeconomic stability; monetary policy should take precedence over the independence of significant exchange rate stability. But the Yuan against the U.S. dollar exchange
In recent years, China’s balance of payments always keeps “double favorable balance”. In 2005, China’s national economy developed quickly and stably. The exchange rat of RMB became more flexible. The current account surplus increased obviously and the capital account surplus decreased. The foreign exchange reserve still increased quickly. In 2005, Chinese government did some fiscal policy and monetary policy. Such as decreased government expense, raise the tax rate, used managed floating system, improve the foreign exchange management, enlarged the foreign exchange market. We can conclude that china’s BOP will still keep “double favorable balance” and keep
With China's deepening Opening Up and economic restructure adjustment and the continuous appreciation of RMB in recent years, the
The US and Europe felt that the RMB was undervalued for several reasons. One reason is that China’s exports had dramatically increased, growing 30% from 2004 to 2005, making China the third largest exporter in the world and accounting for
