The Chinese dual monetary policy attempts to let the Yuan appreciate against the dollar in order to stem cash outflows. And it attempts to let the Yuan fall versus other currencies in the region in order to make Chinese exports more competitive. Bloomberg News has more to say about the Yuan’s dual-moves policy. The Chinese central bank’s appetite for trade-weighted weakness in the yuan appears to be increasing, according to Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Ltd., spurring warnings of increasing risks to emerging-market currencies. A Bloomberg replica of the CFETS RMB Index, which tracks the yuan against 13 exchange rates, fell to a 16-month low of 97.8 on Wednesday, prompting ANZ to comment on whether the People’s Bank of China has set a bottom for declines. The authority is engineering the yuan’s weakness against the basket, which will allow the index to test 97, Credit Suisse Group AG analysts wrote in a note on Wednesday. His comments come amid speculation that the PBOC is following a dual strategy of allowing appreciation against the dollar to curb outflows, while guiding a decline against trading partners to help revive exports. Obviously this strategy only works so long as the USD is in a slow decline due to the Fed holding off on raising interest rates. When the dollar rebounds the Yuan will fall and outflows will increase. If the Chinese central bank responds by strengthening the Yuan they will become less competitive against other producers in emerging markets. Is the Fed Buying Time for China? CNBC writes that the Fed may be buying time for China with its decision to slow interest rate increases.
