How to effectively manage foreign exchange risk has become an emergent task to enterprises. This paper introduces the method of foreign exchange forecast which is the base of foreign exchange risk management, and then deeply discusses different measures of managing the risk.展开更多

An economic model is constructed, with a view from its formation mechanism. Time series techniques are used to examine the long run relationship between foreign exchange reserves and the variables included in the model. Our empirical investigation revealed existence of a systematic long run relationship among foreign exchange reserves, exports, imports, and foreign direct investment. In the short run, the Asian financial crises have not significant effect on China′s foreign exchange reserves. Moreover, the recursive tests results indicated that the error correction model was structurally stable over the sample period, implying that the reserve holdings play a significant role in the balance payments adjustment process and separating China economy from the Asian financial crises.展开更多

We find the following stylized facts： the value of the RAIB became stable after the reform; the weight of the US dollar remained high in the basket, while other currencies remained statistically significant; and the floating band gradually increased to lO percent during 2005-2008, and then greatly narrowed from the late summer of 2008 under the assumption of a yearly resetting interval. We find that the foreign exchange market pressure increased from 2005 to 2008. A possible reason is that the weight of the US dollar in the basket was slightly lower than the share of the US dollar in total transactions on the Chinese foreign exchange market. Therefore, it is reasonable for China to adopt a dollar peg exchange rate regime.展开更多
