以前人民币汇率波动率在正负2%，中国央行倾向于人民币市场化，波动区间有望加大，8月人民币连贬，打开了人民币贬值空间，德国商业银行预测，至2015年底，人民币兑美元将触及6.55，至2016年底目标则看至6.9。

如果人民币贬值，则利好中国对外贸易，如果升值，则利空中国对外贸易。

假定一家中国进口商向美国进口价值1000万美元的机器设备，3个月后支付美元。

若中国进口商预测3个月后USD/CNY将升值到6.2028/38。

If the reserve requirement for demand deposits is 10 percent,what is the maximum change in the money supply that thebanking system can create ifa. the Federal Reserve puts $1,000,000 of new reserves inthe banking systemb. $1,000,000 in cash is deposited in checking accountsc. General Motors borrows $1,000,000 from an insurancecompany?Answers:a. new excess reserves: $1,000,000maximum possible expansion in the money supply:$1,000,000/.1 = $10,000,000b. new excess reserves: $1,000,000 - 100,000 = $900,000maximum possible expansion in the money supply:$900,000/.1 = $9,000,000c. new excess reserves: $0maximum possible expansion in the money supply:$0/.1 = $0(Borrowing from the non-bank public does not affect thebanking system's ability to create new money.)2. What is the effect on (1) demand deposits, (2) requiredreserves, and (3) excess reserves of banks given thefollowing transactions?a. The general public builds up its holdings of cash bywithdrawing funds in checking accounts.b. After Christmas the general public deposits cash in checkingaccounts in commercial banks. (How may seasonal changes in the public's need for cash alter banks' ability to lend?)c. Corporations borrow from commercial banks.d. State and local governments issue debt securities that arepurchased by commercial banks.e. Homeowners borrow from commercial banks to finance homeimprovements. (Are there any differences on the expansion ofthe money supply in questions (c), (d), and (e)?)f. A bank in California with excess reserves lends these fundsthrough the federal funds market to a bank in Maine that hasinsufficient reserves.g. Corporations issue short-term securities that are purchased bythe general public.h. Corporations retire (i.e., pay off) loans from commercial banks.i. The Federal Reserve buys Treasury bills that are sold by thegeneral public.j. The Federal Reserve raises the discount rate, and banks retire debt owed the Federal Reserve.k. The Federal Reserve raises the reserve requirement on demand deposits.l. The Treasury borrows from the banks to finance payments.m. The federal government runs a deficit and borrows the funds from the general public.n. The federal government runs a deficit and borrows the funds from the Federal Reserve.Answers:a. Demand deposits - lowerRequired reserves - lowerExcess reserves - lowerb. Demand deposits - higherRequired reserves - higherExcess reserves - higherThese two questions illustrate that a seasonal flow of deposits into or out of the banking system will affect the reserves of the banking system. Unless the banks are able to find liquidity elsewhere (e.g., the Federal Reserve), such seasonal changes in reserves may produce fluctuations in the supply of credit.c. Demand deposits - higherRequired reserves - higherExcess reserves - lowerd. Demand deposits - higherRequired reserves - higherExcess reserves - lowere. Demand deposits - higherRequired reserves - higherExcess reserves - lowerThese three questions illustrate that from the viewpoint of the banking system, it does not matter if the banks acquire debt issued by firms, governments, or households. To acquire the debt, the banks must have excess reserves. After they have used their excess reserves, the money supply is expanded, and the excess reserves become required reserves.f. Demand deposits - no changeRequired reserves - no changeExcess reserves - no changeUnlike in the previous questions, the lending of excess reserves from one bank to another does not in the aggregate increase or decrease the reserves of the banking system.g. Demand deposits - no changeRequired reserves - no changeExcess reserves - no changeLoans between members of the non-bank general public do not affect banks' reserves and thus do not affect their capacity to lend.h. Demand deposits - lowerRequired reserves - lowerExcess reserves - higherWhile the creation of new loans uses the banks' excess reserves and creates new money, the retiring of loans from commercial banks reduces demand deposits and restores excess reserves (i.e., increases excess reserves).i. Demand deposits - higherRequired reserves - higherExcess reserves - higherj. Demand deposits - no changeRequired reserves - no changeExcess reserves - lowerk. Demand deposits - no changeRequired reserves - higherExcess reserves - lowerQuestions j and k illustrate two major monetary tools, the reserve requirement and the discount rate. Notice that changing the discount rate and the reserve requirements do not in themselves change demand deposits. Their impact is on reserves, and theeffect of this impact may lead to a change in the supply of money. l. Demand deposits - higherRequired reserves - higherExcess reserves - lowerm. Demand deposits - no changeRequired reserves - no changeExcess reserves - no changen. Demand deposits - increaseRequired reserves - increaseExcess reserves - increaseDuring a period of inflation, a policy that contracts the money supply and the capacity of banks to lend is desirable. Theopposite situation would apply during a recession. If there were a deficit during a period of recession, it is desirable to increase the money supply and the capacity of the banks to lend. Hence n is better than m.。

国际金融复习资料英文版International Finance Revision Material - English VersionInternational finance is a field of study that deals with money management and economic activities that take place between nations. It is a crucial component of global trade, as it enables businesses and individuals to conduct transactions across borders and make decisions that impact the world economy. This revision material aims to provide an overview of the fundamental concepts and principles of international finance.1. Exchange RatesExchange rates refer to the value of one currency expressed in terms of another currency. Exchange rates play a significant role in international finance because they affect the competitiveness of a country's exports and also the cost of imports. There are different types of exchange rates, including the fixed exchange rate system, the floating exchange rate system, and the managed floating exchange rate system.2. Balance of PaymentsThe balance of payments is a record of all financial transactions between a country and the rest of the world. It comprises the current account, the capital account, and the financial account. The current account records transactionsrelated to trade in goods and services, while the capital account records transactions related to capital flows, such as foreign investment. The financial account records transactions related to the purchase and sale of financial assets.3. International Capital MarketsInternational capital markets are financial markets where individuals, institutions, and governments can buy and sell financial assets across national borders. Examples of international capital markets include the foreign exchange market, the bond market, and the stock market. These markets facilitate the flow of capital across borders, allowing investors to diversify their portfolios and businesses to access funding from global sources.4. International Monetary SystemThe international monetary system is the framework within which countries conduct transactions and manage their currencies. There are different international monetary systems in history, including the gold standard, the Bretton Woods system, and the floating exchange rate system. The current international monetary system is a managed floating exchange rate system, where exchange rates are determined by market forces but may be influenced by government intervention.5. International TradeInternational trade refers to the exchange of goods and services across borders. International trade is essential foreconomic growth and development because it allows countries to access resources and markets that they do not have domestically. However, international trade can also create imbalances in trade flows, leading to trade deficits or surpluses.6. International Negotiations and AgreementsInternational negotiations and agreements are crucial for maintaining stability and promoting cooperation in international finance. Examples of international negotiations and agreements include the World Trade Organization (WTO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the European Union (EU). These organizations facilitate international trade, promote stable exchange rates, and provide financial assistance to countries in need.In conclusion, understanding the fundamental concepts and principles of international finance is crucial for anyone interested in global trade and economics.
