The decision was made in view of the recent economic situation and financial market developments at home and abroad, and the balance of payments (BOP) situation in China, the spokesperson said in a statement.In further proceeding with the reform, continued emphasis would be placed to reflecting market supply and demand with reference to a basket of currencies. The exchange rate floating bands will remain the same as previously announced in the inter-bank foreign exchange market, the spokesman said.The spokesperson said China's external trade is becoming more balanced. The ratio of current account surplus to GDP, after a notable reduction in 2009, has been declining since the beginning of 2010. 30$/££B S £ B1.5D £ EA C"With the BOP account moving closer to equilibrium, the basis for large-scale appreciation of the RMB exchange rate does not exist," the spokesperson said.The PBOC will further enable market to play a fundamental role in resource allocation, promote a more balanced BOP account, maintain the RMB exchange rate basically stable at an adaptive and equilibrium level, and achieve the macroeconomic and financial stability in China, the spokesperson said.China has moved into a managed floating exchange rate regime based on market supply and demand with reference of a basket of currencies since July 1, 2005.The spokesperson said the reform of the RMB exchange rate regime has been making steady progress since 2005, producing the anticipated results and playing a positive role. ( On July 21, 2005, the People's Bank of China, announced that the RMB yuan, will be traded at a rate of 8.11 to the US and the yuan to US dollar pegging system is switched to a basket of foreign currencies.) With the current round of international financial crisis was at its worst, the exchange rate of a number of sovereign currencies to the US dollar depreciated by varying margins."The stability of the RMB exchange rate has played an important role in mitigating(缓解) the crisis' impact, contributing significantly to Asian and global recovery, and demonstrating China's efforts in promoting global rebalancing," the spokesperson said.The gradual recovery of the global economy and upturn of the Chinese economy has become more solid with enhanced economic stability. It is desirable to proceed further with reform of the RMB exchange rate regime and increase the RMB exchange rate flexibility, said the spokesperson.Question1：Why the spokesperson said. "With the BOP account moving closer to equilibrium, the basis for large-scale appreciation of the RMB exchange rate does not exist,"Question2: Why the Chinese Central bank would like to proceed the reform of the Renminbi （RMB）exchange rate regime to enhance the RMB exchange rate flexibility. Can you explain the benefit by making the RMB more flexible?2: Hot money flow and its explanationThe generally accepted view is that the inflow of short-term speculative money (so-called hot-money) began in 2007 in China targeting capital gains derived from rising stock and property prices an d the anticipated appreciation of the RMB. “hot money” is defined as the flow of funds counted as capital and financial account other than for direct investment and errors and omissions. In other words, “hot money” is defined as “changes in reserve assets”minus “changes in current account” minus “direct investment flows”. This is the simplest way to express the movement of short-term funds, and the most conservative, as the estimates tend to be smaller.When adjustments are made for the some policy measures, the BoP statistics indicate that “hot money” inflows into China accelerated from 22.5 billion USD in the first half of 2007, to 70.2 billion USD in the second half of 2007, and up to 139.1 billion USD in the first half of 2008. In contrast, a huge 184.8 billion USD of “hot money” flowed out in the second half of 2008 (2008, 2H)(Figure 1).Figure 1: Hot money in China after adjustmentForeignDirectCurrentHotSome people says that the huge inflow of hot money is the reason for the increasing price of stock price and property price. In order to check this point, here we give two figures about the Shanghai Stock index and Property (资产) Price index of different regions including ShangHai, Shengzhen, Beijing.Figure 2: Shanghai Stock IndexFigure 3: Property Price index.We find that Stock prices peaked in October 2008, and thereafter began a downward trend(Figure 2). Growth in property prices began to fall in the first half of 2008 (c) (Figure 3) althoughthe hot money inflow go to its peak at the same time.Figure 4: RMB exchange rate and interest rate parityInterestRMBForwardChange of From the above figure 4, we find that the RMB forward exchange rate shifted after therapid appreciation of the RMB spot exchange rate, and deviated from interest rateparity from late-2007 until the autumn of 2008. The distance from interest rate parity widened most in the first half of 2008. This is because spot exchange rates are underthe control of the authorities while forward exchange rates are not, and their appreciation reflected market pa rticipants’ expectation of spot rate appreciation in the following period. As a consequence, the RMB forward exchange rate movedtoward appreciation, and the difference between the RMB forward rate and spot ratebegan to deviate from interest rate parity in May 2007, peaking in March 2008.Figure 5: Returns from arbitrage transactions using RMB forward exchangerateQuestion 1: From fighre1,2,3, do you agree with the such idea that the huge hot money inflow is the main force that pushes the Chinese stock price and property price increase and raises the bubbles. Why?Question 2: With the figure 1, 4, 5 would you please explain the relationship between RMB appreciation and hot money inflow by the asset market approach, say, the covered interest differential equation and covered interest parity.浙江财经学院2009～2010学年第一学期《国际金融(双语)》课程期末考试试卷（ A 卷）答案PART I: Multiple choice（10*1=10）1-5 AAAAB 6-10 ACACC 11-15 ADCCB 16-20 ABBBA21-25 CCAAD 26-30CACCAPART II TRUTH OR FALSE(10*1.5=15)1T 2 F 3 T 4T 5F. 6T 7T 8T 9 F 10 TPART III: Questions(6*6=36)Question 1:POSSIBLE RESPONSE:Current account balance: $346 - 354 + 480 - 348 + 153 - 142 = $135Official settlements balance: $346 - 354 + 480 - 348 +153 -142 + 252 – 352 + 154 = $189Change in official reserve assets (net) = -official settlements balance = -$189.The country is increasing its net holdings of official reserve assets.Question 2:POSSIBLE RESPONSE:a)From the point of view of the U.S.-based investor, the expected uncovered interest differential is [(1+0.03)*1.77/1.8]-(1+0.02)=-0.0072. Because the differential is negative, the U.S –based investor should stay at home, investing in dollar-denominated bonds, if he bases his decision on the difference in expected reurns.b) If there is substantial uncovered investment flowing from Britain to the United States, this increases the supply of pounds in the spot exchange market. There is downward pressure on the spot exchange rate to drop below $1.8/pound. The pound teds to depreciate.Question 3:POSSIBLE RESPONSE:Overshooting occurs because in this sticky price version of the monetary approach, prices are assumed to be fixed in the short run and completely flexible in the long run.A considerable amount of time must pass for the increase in money supply to lead to an increase in domestic prices. Thus, purchasing power parity is more realistically assumed to hold in the long run but not in the short run. Because prices are sticky at first, the increase in money supply drives down domestic interest rates. This shift favors foreign currency assets which results in immediate depreciation of the domestic currency. As prices adjust, the domestic currency reverts back to its new long run equilibrium.Question4、Assume that a government has become committed to maintaining a fixed exchange rate that officially values foreign currencies less, and the domestic currency (here the dollar) more, than the free market equilibrium rate. The official rate is, say, $1.0 per pound sterling. This exchange controls result in considerable costs to a country whose government imposes them. Describe these costs and the role that bribery and parallel markets can play in economies with exchange controls. Figure: Welfare Losses from Exchange ControlsPOSSIBLE RESPONSE:The exchange controls require exporters to turn over all their revenues from foreign buyers to the government. The government, in turn, gives them $1.0 in domestic bank deposits for each pound sterling they have earned. In Figure 20.2, the exchange control limits the foreign currency available to 30 billion pounds, which is the amount earned by the country’s exporters at the exchange rate of $1.0 per pound. Even if those who most value the limited foreign currency get it, the country suffers a loss of well being equal to the triangular area depicted by CEA.Actual exchange control regimes are likely to have other effects and costs. One such example is the efforts evade exchange controls. People are frustrated when they are not allowed to buy foreign exchange, even though they are willing to pay more than the recipients of foreign exchange will get from the government when these holders sell their foreign currency. The frustrated demanders will look for other ways to obtain foreign exchange. One way is to bribe the government functionaries in charge of determining the official approvals. Another is to offer more to recipients of foreign exchange than the government is offering. In this way a second foreign exchange market, a parallel market or black market, develops as a way for private demanders and sellers of foreign exchange to evade exchange controls. Parallel markets exist in most countries that have exchange controls.5. Use the standard IS-LM-FE framework and assume the country begins at a triple intersection under floating exchange rate. What effect will the following have on domestic interest rates, output levels, and the official settlements balance, assuming low capital mobility?(you are suggested explain with figure)a.The central bank increases the money supply.b.The government increases its spending.POSSIBLE RESPONSE:a.The LM curve shifts to the right, and the country moves to a new short-runequilibrium at the intersection of the IS curve and the new LM curve.The domestic interest rate decreases, real GDP increases, and the officialsettlements balance goes into deficit. With the increase in the moneysupply, it is temporarily greater than money demand. To bring about anequilibrium in the money market, interest rates must fall. The fall ininterest rates increases interest-sensitive spending, so the GDP outputlevel increases. There is now a payment deficit because the newintersection of the IS and LM curves takes place to the right of the FEcurve.b.The IS curve shifts to the right, and the country moves to a new short-runequilibrium at the intersection of the LM curve and the new IS curve.Real GDP increases, the domestic interest rate increases, and the officialsettlements balance goes into deficit. This new intersection occurs to theright of the relatively steep FE curve, which corresponds to a paymentsdeficit.The figure is neglected.6. Explain the effects of expanding the money supply on the economy of a country with fixed exchange rates. (Assume the country begins at a triple intersection , you are suggested explain with figure)POSSIBLE RESPONSE:Beginning from an external balance, an expansion in the money supply increases bank liquidity. In the short run, as banks compete with each other to lend money, interest rates are bid down. The fall in interest rates causes some holders of financial assets denominated in the domestic currency to seek higher returns abroad. The international capital outflow causes the financial account to deteriorate. the currency of this country will under the pressure of depreciate, thus the central bank should intervene the foreign market by buying the domestic currency. Thus the concretionary monetary policy will be applied.Finally we will find it that the expansionary monetary policy can not make effect on the economy..The figure is neglected.Part III, Reading and analysisReading 1 ,9 scoreQuestion1：Why the spokesperson said. "With the BOP account moving closer to equilibrium, the basis for large-scale appreciation of the RMB exchange rate does not exist,"POSSIBLE RESPONSE:The policy makers usually will pursuer both the external balance and internal balance, the external balance means that the Balance of Payments or the current account balance plus the financial account balance is close to zero. In this situation, it means that the export value (including goods, services and financial products) is equal to the import value in China. Thus in the foreign exchange market the supply of foreign currency is similar to the demand of the foreign currency and the foreign exchange market is close to the equilibrium. The values of Chinese currency RMB will not experience the appreciation pressure more. So the spokesperson said the basis for large-scale appreciation of the RMB exchange rate does not exist. This basis means the BOP account moving closer to equilibrium.Question2: Why the Chinese Central bank would like to proceed the reform of the Renminbi （RMB）exchange rate regime to enhance the RMB exchange rate flexibility.

None of the above.Answer: BEssay Questions1. Discuss the effects of government deficits on the current account.Answer:A hard and difficult issue.During the Reagan administration, the creation of twin deficits, whereby slashing taxes, government deficits increased, which was accompanied with increased current account deficits. Using the identity CA = Private Saving - I - (G – T), one can see that if privatesavings and I are constants, an increase in the deficit, namely an increase in (G – T), necessarily increases the CA deficits by the same magnitude.However, governmentbudget deficit may change both private savings and investment, thus avoiding a creationof the twin deficits.An example is the European countries reducing their budget deficits just prior to the introduction of the euro in January 1999. Now, under the “twin deficits: theory,” onewould have expected the EU’s current account surpluses to increase. This has never happened. The main reason was sharp reduction in private saving rates.A good answer should discuss Ricardian equivalence, which argues that when the government cut taxes and raises its deficit, consumers anticipate that they will facehigher taxes later to pay for the resulting government debt. In anticipation, they raisetheir own private saving to offset the fall in government saving. In addition, one should mention wealth effect in anticipation of one Europe, assets prices increased, loweringprivate saving rates.2. “The balance of payments is always balanced.” Discuss.Answer: True. Every international transaction automatically enters the balance of payments twice,once as a credit and once as a debit.Current account + financial account + capital account = 03. “The balance of payments accounts seldom balance in practice.” Discuss.Answer: True. The main reasons are due to the fact that data collected or received from different sources may differ in coverage, accuracy, and timing. In addition, data on services arenotas reliable as data from the financial account. Moreover, accurate measurements of international interest and dividend receipts are particularly difficult.Quantitative/Graphing Problems1.

What can one learn from the following figure?Answer:The figure shows the U.S. current account and net foreign wealth from 1977 until 1996.It shows that a string of current account deficits in the 1980s reduced America’s net foreign wealth until, by the end 1996, the country had accumulated a substantial net foreign debt. In 1987 the country became a net debtor to foreigners for the first time since World War I.Chapter 13: Exchange Rates and the Foreign Exchange Market: An AssetApproachMultiple Choice Questions1.

None of the above.Answer: AEssay Questions1. What are the main factors determining the aggregate money demand?Answer: Three main factors: interest rate, the price level, and real national income. A rise in the interest rate causes each individual in the economy to reduce her demand for money. If the price level rises, individual households and firms will spend more money than before. When real national income (GNP) rises, the demand for money will rise.2. Explain why one can write the demand for money as follows:M d =P L (R, Y).Answer: The aggregate money demand is proportional to the price level. Imagine that all prices in an economy doubled, but the interest rate and everyone’s real incomes remained unchanged. Then, the money value of eac h individual’s average daily transactions would then simply double, as would the amount of money each wishes to hold.3. What will be the effects of an increase in real national income on the interest rate? Answer: An increase in real national income will increase the interest rate. If investment depends only on interest rate, this will cause investment to go down. The increases interest rate will cause an appreciation of the dollar.4. Analyze the effects of an increase in the European money supply on the dollar/euro exchange rate.Answer: The main points are: An increase in the European money supply will reduce the interest rate on the euro, and thus causes the euro to depreciates against the dollar. The U.S. money demand and money supply are not going to be affected, and thus the interest rate in the U.S. will remain the same.5. Explain how the money markets of two countries are linked through the foreign exchange market.Answer: The monetary policy actions by the Fed affect the U.S. interest rate, changing the dollar/euro exchange rate that clears the foreign exchange market. The European System of Central Banks (ESCB) can affect the exchange rate by changing the European money supply and interest rate.重庆工商大学财政金融学院国际金融学双语课程习题集6. “Although the price levels appear to display short-run stickiness in many countries, a change in the money supply creates immediate demand and cost pressures that eventuallylead to future increase in the price level.” Discuss.Answer: (See pages 3479 – 380). The statement is true. The pressures come from three main sources: excess demand for output and labor; inflationary expectations; and raw material prices.7. Explain the effects of a permanent increase in the U.S. money supply in the short run andin the long run. Assume that the U.S. real national income is constant.An increase in the nominal money supply raises the real money supply, lowering the interest rate in the short run. The money supply increase is considered to continue in the future; thus, it will affect the exchange rate expectations. This will make the expected return on the euro moredesirable and thus the dollar depreciates. In the case of a permanent increase in theU.S. money supply, the dollar depreciates more than under a temporary increase in themoney supply.Now, in the long run, prices will rise until the real money balances are the same as before the permanent increase in the money supply. Since the output level is given, the U.S. interest rate, which decreased before, will start to increase, until it will move back to its originallevel. The equilibrium interest rate must be the same as its original long -run value. This increase in the interest rate must cause the dollar to appreciate against the euro after its sharp depreciation as a result of the permanent increase in the money supply. So a large depreciation is followed by an appreciation of the dollar. Eventually, the dollar depreciatesin proportion to the increase in the price level, which in turn increases by the same proportion as the permanent increase in the money supply. Thus, money is neutral, in the sense that it cannotaffect in the long run real variables, such as output, investment, etc.8. Explain the following figure:Answer:The figure explains how the money markets of two countries are linked through the foreign exchange market. The monetary policy actions by the Fed affect the U.S. interest rate, changing the dollar/euro exchange rate that clears the foreign exchange market. The European System of Central Banks (ESCB) can affect the exchange rate by changing the European money supply and interest rate.Chapter 15: Price Levels and the Exchange Rate in the Long Run Multiple Choice Questions1.

The forward rate is 6.9￥/$, therefore the company must deliver 6.9*40=276 million yuan in 90 days. This way the company has an asset position in dollar through the forward contract that covers its liability of the 40 million dollar loan.2. Suppose $1 = 0.8 euros in New York, 1 euro = 100 yen in Paris, and 1 yen = $0.01 in Tokyo.If you begin by holding $1, how could you profit from these exchange rates?

Then convert 1 euro back to dollars in New York , which makes $1.25, yielding a profit of $0.25.3. Consider the case of a U.S. investor holding dollars and deciding whether to invest in Japanese treasury bills or in U.S. treasury bills. Assume that the investor wants to end up holding dollars and investment period is 6 months. What are the three methods available to this investor? In your answer shows the return per dollar invested under each method. Which of these methods is the riskiest and why? Ijp=T-bill interest rate per annum in Japan, Iu.s.=T-bill interest rate per annum in U.S.SR=spot rate, FR(forward rate)=98￥/$, E(SR6)=expected spot rate at the end of six months.The three methods, each described by an equation, per $1 invested, are:a.

How could a Chinese firm, who expects to receive 40 million dollar in 60 days and repay a 40 million dollar loan in 90 days, use forward exchange contracts to hedge its risk exposure?spot exchange rate 6.8￥/$.60-day forward exchange rate 6.9￥/$.90-day forward exchange rate 6.9￥/$The Chinese firm needs to enter into a forward contract to buy 40 million dollars in 90 days. The forward rate is 6.9￥/$, therefore the company must deliver 6.9*40=276 million yuan in 90 days. This way the company has an asset position in dollar through the forward contract that covers its liability of the 40 million dollar loan.2. Suppose $1 = 0.8 euros in New York, 1 euro = 100 yen in Paris, and 1 yen = $0.01 in Tokyo.If you begin by holding $1, how could you profit from these exchange rates? What is your arbitrage profit per dollar initially traded?With $1, one should buy 100 yen in Tokyo. Then 100 yen should be exchanged for 1 euro in Paris. Then convert 1 euro back to dollars in New York , which makes $1.25, yielding a profit of $0.25.3. Consider the case of a U.S. investor holding dollars and deciding whether to invest in Japanese treasury bills or in U.S. treasury bills. Assume that the investor wants to end up holding dollars and investment period is 6 months. What are the three methods available to this investor? In your answer shows the return per dollar invested under each method. Which of these methods is the riskiest and why? Ijp=T-bill interest rate per annum in Japan, Iu.s.=T-bill interest rate per annum in U.S.SR=spot rate, FR(forward rate)=98￥/$, E(SR6)=expected spot rate at the end of six months.The three methods, each described by an equation, per $1 invested, are:a. Covered international investment; covered return = (1 + Ijp/2) * FR/SRb. Uncovered international investment; expected uncovered return = (1 + iJP/2) * E(SR)/SRc. Invest directly in U.S. treasury bills; domestic return = (1 + Iu.s./2)The riskiest is the second option because the investor is exposed to exchange-rate risk and is not covered.You are provided with the following information about a country's international transactions during a given year (in millions):Calculate the merchandise trade balance, goods and services balance, the current account balance and Official settlements balance.Is the country increasing or decreasing its net holdings of official reserve assets?外汇储备的增加计入借方。
