GATT1994第15条研究——兼论人民币汇率困境之出路

A Study on Article 15 of GATT1994:On Solutions to the Predicament of the RMB Exchange Rate

本文在对GATT1994第15条进行文本分析的基础上提出:GATT1994第15条作为设计和规范WTO与IMF之间各自职责与合作关系的平衡条款,没有规定成员方的外汇安排,只要符合IMF协定即可获得对WTO义务的豁免,更没有排斥WTO对汇率问题的管辖权,而在WTO赢得胜诉也无须证明人民币汇率构成倾销或补贴。

Based on a textual analysis of Article 15 of GATT1994, the author holds the view that Article 15 of GATF1994 neither exempts WTO members from their WTO obligations on the condition that their foreign exchange arrangements are in line with IMF agreements nor excludes the WTO jurisdiction on ex- change rates. Meanwhile, the constitution of dumping or subsidies isn＇ t a precondition for the exercise of WTO jurisdiction.
