Abstract

This article explores the ongoing debate among leading economists regarding the optimal exchange rate regime for China. It examines the historical evolution of China’s exchange rate policy, the economic rationale behind fixed versus floating regimes, and the implications for trade, capital flows, and monetary policy autonomy. Drawing on expert commentary and empirical evidence, the article evaluates the trade-offs and policy challenges China faces in managing its currency in a globalized economy.
