Abstract

[fre] La Banque centrale de Chine a adopté à deux reprises (juillet 2005-été 2008 et juin 2010-aujourd’hui) le régime de panier de monnaies. Toutefois, aucune information liée à la composition et au fonctionnement du panier n’est révélée au public. Nous tentons dans cet article d’estimer d’un point de vue dynamique sa composition. Les résultats montrent que le régime de change quelle que soit la période ressemble plutôt à un crawling peg vis-à-vis du dollar américain. Le crawling peg permet au RMB de s’apprécier progressivement et d’être plus flexible. Il semble aussi que la vitesse d’appréciation du RMB soit régulée de façon à amortir les effets pass-through de prix international des matières premières sur l’inflation domestique. Enfin l’opacité du fonctionnement du panier de monnaies permet une flexibilité dans le sens de marge de manoeuvre de la Banque centrale et d’un régime de transition vers celui de flottement libre. .

The People’s Bank of China has adopted twice (July 2005-summer 2008 and June 2010-today) currency basket as exchange regime. No information related to composition or functioning of the basket is known. In this paper, wetry to estimate in a dynamic approach its composition. The results show in each period, the exchange regime resembles rather a crawling peg vis-à-vis US dollar. The crawling peg permits gradual appreciation of the RMB and its flexibilization. It seems also that the pace of RMB’s appreciation would be regulated so in order to absorb pass-through effect of international commodity price on domestic inflation. Finally, because of the opacity on basket’s functioning, the currency basket is only a form allowing flexibility within the meaning of room of manoeuvre of the Central Bank ; it is also a transition regime toward free floating. . Classification JEL : F31, F41, O53, P34.
