Intervention in the foreign exchange markets in emerging economies "powerless"

South Africa Finance Minister Pravin · Gordan recently said, the Government of South Africa alone by unilateral action, insufficient to curb currency appreciation of South Africa RAND, only a global solution to effectively address the current emerging economies are facing money problems. While South Africa Finance Director-Gan Maniago, although South Africa is not like other emerging countries have adequate foreign exchange reserves on the foreign exchange market intervention, but this does not mean that South Africa would do nothing.

From developed economies the impact Super relaxed monetary policy, the Rand exchange rate against the dollar since the beginning of 2009 is about 39% of cumulative appreciation. 14, RAND dollar reached 6.76: 1 level, two and a half years. As at 18-20, Beijing time, RAND dollar reported 6.87: 1.

At the same time, foreign exchange market intervention Brazil faces continued inflows of foreign investment in the "troubles". According to reports, pengboshe 18, Brazil will be sold in international markets Brazil currency real international bonds, to relieve the international portion of the assets of the country, and this is Brazil over the past three years from the first sale of such bonds.

South Africa "purse not drum"

Gordan in South Africa media interview, warned that the world economy is at a critical moment, once the "currency war" broke out, will have on South Africa's economic. immeasurable South Africa should be combined with other emerging market countries, the study on global solutions to address the immediate crisis. Previously, Goldin and South Africa's Central Bank Governor of Marcus repeatedly emphasized, as developed economies continue to cut interest rates, international speculative capital flows interest rates are relatively high in emerging economies, including RAND, emerging economies continued appreciation of the currency.

Coombe Maniago said that many countries now global currency devaluation of competition have been formed, which in the final analysis, is a "national purse" competition, but South Africa's "purse" and not drum. He also said, "we will continue to focus on multilateral consultations, but we also need to consider other measures can be implemented. "He pointed out that Brazil on the taxation of foreign investment inflows also enough to suppress Brazil currency real fast rally, this implies that South Africa does not exclude taking similar measures on the Rand exchange rate intervention.

Latest data show that South Africa at the end of September the foreign exchange reserves, representing $ 360.25 8 month 354.64 billion slightly increased. Standard Chartered Bank Research Department in the African region, said that regardless of whether South Africa's Central Bank has accelerated the pace of its announced reserves of foreign exchange reserves data is a bad news because RAND continued appreciation, this allows the original monetary policy is weak South Africa more easily in the international currency war at a disadvantage. Marcus also pointed out that the same other emerging market countries have very different, South Africa's own savings, rely on the capital account of the inflow to cover the deficit of current account. Therefore, South Africa has not taken on capital inflows radical measures such as taxation. The Government should seek other ways rather than through intervention currency exchange to promote economic and employment growth.

Brazil assets purchased by coax

According to the latest data show pengboshe, since Brazil Government announced on 4 October on the country's local currency bonds of foreign investors the implementation rate doubled, real guagouxing (real-linked) international bonds were foreign capital buying, 2016 due over the same period in the international bond and bond yields poor in China has been extended to July high of 372 basis points, namely 3.72%. A huge market demand that Brazil Government considering selling real international bonds, Brazil's Central Bank under the jurisdiction of the State Treasury Secretary augstine has 14, said that the country will before the end of the year sale real international bonds.

BNP Paribas Latin American policy analyst Diego · Donadio said, this is Brazil's Government to sell bonds a good time, because for overseas investors, bond rates doubled so that investment is costly Brazil, China and Brazil assets and attractive. Citigroup Latin American currency and interest rate analyst Ramachandran said that investors demand global bonds, if Brazil will issue international bonds, market appetite will open.

Prior to this, the international impact of huge hot money inflow, Brazil's Central Bank has approved the purchase of US dollars and sell real ways, directly into the city on real appreciation trend. Meanwhile, Brazil Ministry of Finance also improves the bonds of the foreign investors and to contain the actual rates of inflow of foreign capital. But these measures are difficult to douse international investors on share Brazil's economic growth cake enthusiasm. Under Brazil's Central Bank published figures for the month of September this year, a total of nearly 17 million into Brazil, Brazil's Central Bank is the 1982 since the statistics, the highest monthly inflow. In this regard, Brazil's President Lula has stressed that Brazil does not welcome those short-term international capital arbitrage.

Effect of the case in favor of fasteners: EU should impose a single low tax rate.

<P> "For many years the European Union on China to take measures unilaterally, the Chinese accepted. Now, this situation changed." China v.

EU Anti-Dumping Measures on fasteners," the report released ruling, clearly ruled that the European Union on China fasteners violation of anti-dumping measures taken by WTO rules, and further noted that the EU's "anti-dumping basic regulations" relating to " .individual tax rate "is inconsistent with WTO rules. .</ P> <P> This means that Chinese companies automatically get a separate tax rate, without special application to obtain, while the EU imposed last year on the unity of Chinese enterprises with high tax rates will automatically lapse. .</ P> <P> previous anti-dumping investigation procedures in the European Union, Chinese enterprises can only apply for and obtain a separate tax rate approved treatment, and vice versa was conscripted to unify all the anti-dumping duties. .</ P> <P> precedent with the case of fasteners, WTO Panel is likely to make the same conclusions similar to sue. .According to report, China v. the EU anti-dumping footwear, also referred to "separate rate" problem. .</ P> <P> the case of China Fasteners attorney PhilippeDeBaere interview with this reporter, said that China's victory in the case of anti-dumping system throughout the EU has an important influence, "This is a huge victory, which means that the EU will be more .Chinese exporters hard on anti-dumping duties imposed are too high. " .</ P> <P> EU WTO rules violate provisions of a separate tax rate </ P> <P> the case of fasteners, China concentrated firepower to the "single tax" provisions of the attack. .</ P> <P> EU anti-dumping rules in the "single tax" provisions, not granted market economy treatment to Chinese enterprises must comply with the terms set standards in order to separate the use of corporate tax rate of export prices, or will be charged .higher flat rate. .</ P> <P> PhilippeDeBaere explained that the European Union in the past all the Chinese exporters as a whole, finds its full control by the Chinese government. .According to the definition of the European Union, once the business from non-market economy country, is part of a collective, it can only have a unified tax rate. .In early 2009, the EU's decision on the fasteners, Chinese enterprises were unified collection of up to 87% of the anti-dumping duty for a period of 5 years. .</ P> <P> WTO Panel finds that the European Union on a separate special tax provisions inconsistent with WTO rules. .WTO Anti-Dumping Agreement requires cooperation of all companies surveyed, a separate calculation of the dumping margin. .The enterprise is the market economy status from the state, does not affect their access to individual tax rates. .China's accession to the WTO agreement did not agree with this special treatment. .</ P> <P> under the WTO ruling, the EU anti-dumping investigations in the future, we should charge for each separate tax rate of Chinese exporters, without a separate application for individual business tax treatment. .This will significantly reduce the overall average tax rate for China. .</ P> <P> "If the EU to make changes in accordance with the WTO ruling, the EU imposed on Chinese enterprises in the future too much like anti-dumping duties would be much more difficult", PhilippeDeBaere said. .</ P> <P> In addition, a flat tax does not apply to Brazil, the United States and other market economy countries, this also means that the WTO ruling will affect the EU in Vietnam, Cuba and other non-market economy country's anti-dumping investigations. .</ P> <P> EU or appeal </ P> <P> Chinese Ministry of Commerce of the WTO Panel's ruling, responded that a long time, the EU has been urging China's export enterprises in the anti-dumping in the proof of the EU's so-called "separate .tax rate "requirements, anti-dumping on Chinese companies a serious burden and unfair treatment. .</ P> <P> In fact, the EU importers and retailers on the European Commission also asked the Chinese enterprises to apply the provisions of a separate treatment dissatisfaction. ."It's the uncertainty of their means, they do not know which Chinese companies can get lower rates." .JappeEckhardt told reporters. .</ P> <P> but there are still large PhilippeDeBaere EU may be expected to appeal a decision on this, "because it is the EU anti-dumping system is an important challenge, of course, require the EU to defend." .In addition, the Lisbon Treaty enters into force, to change the basic anti-dumping regulations means that need to be approved by the European Parliament, "the Council may use this opportunity to go beyond the technical issues of anti-dumping, other trade issues to the European Commission pressure." .</ P> <P> under the WTO dispute settlement procedures, the two sides in the report of your findings within 60 days after the appeal. .Members of EU trade spokesman JohnClancy De Gucht said: "It is worth noting that this is only an intermediate process, because the EU or China can decide whether to appeal. So now unable to determine the impact of the award." </ .P> <P> footwear case will be affected </ P> <P> China and the EU is more common in the field of anti-dumping dispute is how to calculate the normal price. .In the anti-dumping investigations, a country export price lower than the normal price difference is known as dumping. .Normal price usually refers to conditions in the general trade exports than domestic sales prices of similar products. .But the EU did not grant China market economy status, so they have to replace the country export prices of similar products to confirm the normal price. .</ P> <P> PhilippeDeBaere told reporters in the case of fasteners, made in China, the EU has not recognized in the prosecution of the normal price of the issue, "We want to go step by step, and a separate tax rate is a more fundamental issue." .</ P> <P> the pace has begun. .October 2008, the EU anti-dumping measures on China shoes will launch the occasion of the expiry of the final review, and in December 22, 2009 decision to extend anti-dumping measures in 15 months. .February 4, 2010, the Chinese side to propose in the WTO dispute settlement mechanism under the request for consultations. .</ P> <P> According to report, mainly in the case of China proposed the "single tax" and the "normal price" on two issues. .In the case of fasteners under the precedents, WTO Panel is likely the case with shoes, in a separate tax issue reached the same conclusion. .</ P> <P> JappeEckhardt told reporters that China has become more positive and confident use of the multilateral trading system to protect their own interests, rather than in the past, Europe and America all the passive acceptance of trade remedy measures. .1999 to 2009, China had been 445 anti-dumping measures, for all WTO member countries initiated anti-dumping measures the sum of 24%. .</ P>.

Experts: Commodity stabilized interest rates came to be.

<P> Interest rate expectations continued to improve </ P> <P> recently, the generally positive U.S. economic data, economic recovery continues to increase, and the strong intervention of the Fed, Treasury market was basically stable, however, to quantify in the EU .easing the pressure caused by imported inflation, the U.S. inflation on the rise, this rise again, or will prompt the Federal Reserve discount rate, or even pre-start raising interest rates to stabilize prices, then the dollar continues to remain strong, commodity microscopic .the light of day. .</ P> <P> At the same time, China's economy overheating of the early clues, the central bank interest rate expectations continued to improve, for three reasons: First, the high CPI, PPI is the most obvious of the central bank to raise interest rates precursor, and second, quantitative .monetary policy is limited, third, increased inflow of hot money, imported inflation pressure, the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates soon to open a "Pandora's Box", my interest is not without reason. .</ P> <P> visible, at home and abroad is expected to continue to increase interest rates, money market, or will replace the capital market as the main bearer of economic development, and the face of the overhead of the "Damocles" sword of interest rates, capital market .bound to make significant concessions, like short term commodities bottomed out and talk about He Qinan ah! .</ P> <P> bullish market return to fundamentals </ P> <P> In fact, raising interest rates once the dust settles, the market will be relieved panic, the commodity market will return to bullish fundamentals of supply and demand (the former .interest rates several times the effect is very obvious), and the view from the disk, already oversold commodities, especially copper, thread and other industrial products, the product attribute negative financial attributes have been significantly weakened at the same time, I believe that the central bank increases .interest rates, the market will gradually highlight product attributes, of the bull market is expected to regain confidence, reflected in three aspects: </ P> <P> First of all, the domestic central bank to raise interest rates would not be significant. .For four reasons: First, on May 10 the central bank has just raised the deposit reserve ratio; followed by the number of early-type monetary policy has achieved good results; once again the real estate monitoring and control policies such as regulation and control of excess capacity at this time is .value of the critical period; Finally, appreciation of the renminbi is expected to continue to increase, increase hot money inflows, strong pressure of international public opinion. .</ P> <P> I believe that a small interest rate increase will not only make the market fully ease the panic, but also to advance the bearish market is expected to become profitable "anti-return" of the city, goods will be partially compensated for the financial attributes ., jointly with the Commercial Property market to pick up a better picture to emerge. .</ P> <P> Second, the effect of the Forced hedge interest rate expectations. .In the euro, the pound behind the push up the dollar, yen, gold funds are also sought after by the market, I believe that although the high capital risk aversion, but the flows already appears divided, and the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates to stimulate "panic" will be gold, at .element completely out of money on long after the dollar rally was to be slowing down, then, was expected to return home and pick up the commodity market trends. .</ P> <P> again, prices are down on serious interest from the more traditional shopping season of the fundamental support. .Currently, the bulk of goods are not only inverted, but some of the prices of goods and even fell below the cost price, which will drive commodity commodity attribute is gradually emerging, once interest rates, commodity markets will certainly paid off. .</ P> <P> sum up, the panic of funds as interest rate expectations will continue to strengthen and continue to upgrade the current weak trend in commodity futures markets will continue to run, is expected to near the ideal state is the commodity market .low within a narrow range (less likely), the probability of continued sharp decline in larger operations, suggest that investors are still bearish near the main thought, should not buy the dips. .</ P> <P> addition, with the point interest rate increase approaching, commodities commodity attribute is bound to increasingly prominent space will narrow down until the rate hike, "boots" after landing long before funds Admission ., I believe that the domestic central bank to raise interest rates still need some buffer time, is expected in the second quarter, likely the beginning of the third quarter. .</ P>.

G20 attention deficit reduction is not currency

The Group of 20 (G20) in rich countries are agreed commitments to 2013 deficit level cut half in three years, the debt burden must begin to decline. The international market and domestic political audience to signal that these countries will soon begin to weaken the irritation.

G20 from industrialized countries and developing countries. The Summit of the main topics of the debate, is in the global economy was uncertain road ahead, how fast reduction of government expenditure. United States had warned that if you reduce too fast, while private demand will not be able to fill the vacancy, the global recession is likely to recur. If the action, it is possible that analyses the produce unsustainable debt burdens, and thus likely to push up interest rates, or even risk of sovereign debt defaults. Earlier this year, Greece had walked to the edge of the breach.

This commitment was first put forward by Canada, the United States, Japan and the European countries. A draft declaration put forward G20 commitments to reduce the debt of speed "is good for growth." This means that the last statement should be demonstrated willingness to reduce the deficit, but did not give a rapid slowdown in spending Outlook.

Declaration of an early version of say, G20 affair with a nurturing and enhancing recovery, as well as a strong, sustainable and balanced growth Foundation, including strengthening our financial system for the prevention of risks.

The Obama administration has pledged to cut the deficit in accordance with the above, but has urged G20 attention irritation.

Will become Canada's Central Bank in July (BankofCanada) Senior Vice President and senior financial officials McCallum (TiffMacklem) recognized the G20 countries face a double risk as aforesaid. He said that there is a risk that, if not clear, credible financial plan commitment, communication and action, you may damage recovery; there is also a risk that if the G20 countries at the same time a lot very quickly for fiscal austerity, the recovery is likely to be adversely affected.

Germany uses this field to a weekend meeting criticized the United States, sought to show themselves in deficit and debt issues tough reputation. Germany's Finance Minister Schaeuble (WolfgangSchauble) accept France Monde (LeMonde) interview on the United States had complained, saying Obama's huge irritant expenditures on the United States is higher than 9% of the basic unemployment rate has no effect. To Sunday, Germany Merkel (AngelaMerkel) has announced that the United States and other countries to unite. She said, should be developed industrialised countries in 2013 will be reduced by half its budget deficit and start from 2016 to reduce debt levels, this point is clear-Canada leaders also here provides great support-we are very pleased about this.

G20 countries spread in the middle of the file shows that the United States, Germany and France, the United Kingdom and Canada, are prepared in a similar manner be halved the deficit; G20 Summit to put these commitments speak more clearly.

United States estimated that by 2013, the deficit in the proportion of GDP will be from the current 10.1% drop to 4.2%, Germany expected 2013 of deficit ratio from 2010 5.5% down to 3%. But the United States reached the goal more than Germany depends on economic growth, and the United States of economic growth is expected to be slower than Germany.

Representation in the Obama administration is now Petersen, Institute for International Economics (PetersonInstituteofInternationalEconomics) economists Truman (TedTruman) said that, from the past, the Summit's commitment will help countries do, after all, or they want to do. He said that in the 1990s, the United States in international fora reduction of budget deficits, is widely regarded as the maintenance of a strong position, although in the 1980s when similar pressures did not play a role.

Toronto Summit in many ways. First it was the Seattle World Trade Organization since 1999 riot against international economic summit, the largest demonstrations.

Protests have about 500 people were arrested, began as trade unions and social justice organizations led peace marches, but in the end becomes a small unit of violent youth. Some news briefing because of the violence has been disturbed, but conflict away from leaders held a meeting place, but not like Seattle that interrupt the consultations.

This G20 Summit did not focus on China, India and Brazil, etc. larger emerging markets. In 2009, 9 years Pittsburgh G20 Summit, people want to own the trade surplus countries, especially China committed to adjust the policy to reduce export, increase domestic consumption. But I hope that those who have a large trade deficit in the country, especially the United States to the contrary. Toronto Summit only briefly reviewed the State of commitments.

For China and India, the largest ever be of significance lies they attended the World Summit. Taking into account if they fail to make adjustments to the Summit in Toronto, they embarrassed the meeting as the deadline for policy adjustment.

Regarding China, the United States Government officials and the Chinese Central Bank officials have access to the G20 Summit is an opportunity to convince the Chinese Government agreed to let the RMB appreciation. United States Treasury Secretary Geithner (TimothyGeithner) has made it clear that the United States hoped that the RMB exchange rate mechanism in the 6 months prior to the G20 Summit to April he postponed publishing Ministry twice a year to report on international currency. The report may have accused Beijing manipulation of the RMB exchange rate to obtain the advantage in international trade.

Cornell University economist Prasad (EswarPrasad) was the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Chief Chinese officials, he said that the G20 upcoming this fact helped those who wish to exchange more

Flexibility of China's Central Bank officials so that they stay in and wished the RMB exchange rate underestimated trade officials engaged in the upper hand.

Is India, the Government Friday before the Summit that will significantly reduce gasoline and kerosene of consumer subsidies, and this will reduce government spending and increase energy efficiency, in line with the G20 on reducing energy subsidies. IMF former officials SA Bo Raman-(ArvindSubramanian) said that India and China's actions show international factors play a role. At present he is the Peterson Institute for International Economics (PetersonInstituteforInternationalEconomics) researchers.

At the end of the consultations, the members wish to consolidate G-20 on financial rules for the adjustment of the expected, including strengthening of capital and leverage standards.

They also make continue to oppose protectionism, this commitment does not terminate the creation of barriers to trade, but in the global recession allowing barrier at the level of control.

The majority of financial matters be deferred to the next consultation, held in Seoul, the G20 Summit expected to agree to new States.

G20 countries in Bank tax issues still disagreements, United States, Germany, United Kingdom and France supported the relief funds taxation, but include Canada, Brazil and India, countries did not provide for bank capital reorganization of public funds, therefore they opposed this view.

Obama to Seoul Summit increased the issues, consultations with Korea, he expressed the hope that modify the Korea free trade agreement (KoreanFreeTradeAgreement) part, and the Seoul Summit reached an agreement before.

Korea presidential adviser said, leaving Seoul HyunSongShin session? everything. Korea is also G20 meeting, summarized, Seoul, G20 Summit will focus on development issues, and to countries in need of emergency loans. After a stimulating programme is a joint effort with the IMF.

Basel second edition of "Dead Before their dreams".

<P> Recently, one of the major highlights is the international Basel II came out the third edition of the draft. .July 26, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision announced that 26 members of the central bank and banking regulators in the financial crisis, set to strengthen bank capital and liquidity risk management to reach a broad reform program. .The specific content of the program include: the definition of capital, counterparty credit risk management, debt capital leverage, assets, liabilities, liquidity standards. .There are also issues to be negotiated are: how to improve the capital ratios, and how to impose counter-cyclical buffer mechanism. .This large area of the reform program, known as the third edition of the Basel agreement. .</ P> <P> the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision is an international financial organization, subordinate to "the central bank's bank" Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland. .Basel Committee on Banking Supervision is mainly engaged in the coordination and development of international banking supervision policy, international exchange and provide a platform for consultation. .It is the most important results of the first edition of the Basel Protocol, Second Edition, and now the third edition. .</ P> <P> the third edition came out with the Basel Accord, a natural question is the second edition go? .In the U.S., the original dynamic of the Basel Accord have not seen the second edition of its debut, did not enter the agenda of major banks, has been replaced, and how is this going? .</ P> <P> talking about the second edition of the Basel Agreement, may be traced back to the first edition. .Basel II was born in 1988, first edition, it is the initiative of its national jurisdiction of the bank regulatory agencies to implement the minimum capital reserve requirements in order to guard against risk, to ensure the safety and soundness of bank runs. .This guide policy because of its simple, capital and risk-linked, not only by the ten member states was adopted by the Basel, also adopted by other non-member countries. .Basel Basel Committee created the first version of a unified international standards, coordination of regulatory policy precedent, opened a major international financial regulatory scene. .</ P> <P> blink of an eye over the past decade, ever-changing financial market, for those international banks, Basel II begin to show the first edition of its limitations. .The agreement provided for the risk of type too small, the line is too thick, making the capital and risk not linked closely enough and efficient capital allocation, resulting in banks there have been many capital arbitrage. .In addition, reasonable and effective to calculate the real risk, we must rely on a combination of advanced theory, diversification of assets and hedge between the properties are taken into account. .At that time, many big banks have been successfully used in their internal model portfolio risk management, pricing and capital allocation. .</ P> <P> call in the banking sector's lobbying, the New York Federal Reserve began the first edition of the work of the Basel II reforms, has done a lot of sample collection, the survey summed up, meeting coordination, with the Basel Committee, various .dealing with regulatory agencies and lobby groups work. .The first edition from 1998 Basel reform horn sounded, Basel 2006, the second edition of the dust has settled, the four U.S. banking regulators (Federal Reserve, currency control department, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, savings and loan .will monitor the Department) beginning to end, go all out to actively participate in and treat it as top priority. .Finally, the second edition of the implementation of the Basel Accord very large and complex for different banks, the capital of three different calculation methods: the standard method, the IRB, senior law. .Among them, the standard method similar to the first edition of the Basel Agreement, only slightly more complicated; higher law, although high, did not achieve the combination of theoretical models using the height and mind. .In other words, Basel II selected for the second edition of a compromise between the first and between the combination of the three paragraphs of theoretical models. .</ P> <P> the state-owned banks in Europe before 2008, must complete the deployment of Basel II and implementation of the second edition. .Banking system is also step by step, establish a good system, configured personnel, have started reporting the new capital adequacy ratio under the agreement. .</ P> <P> but in the U.S., although the initiator of the second edition of the Basel Agreement, to the implementation of the implementation phase is delayed, hesitant. .Small and medium banks that no substantive change to the agreement, and adoption of new agreement to pay a considerable number of human material and financial resources, more harm than good, complete a regulatory burden. .The big banks did not respond positively, because they can not meet the requirements of the use of portfolio theory model. .</ P> <P> Finally, under international pressure, the four U.S. banking regulators in July 2008 reached a compromise to require large U.S. banks to implement Basel II version of the Higher Law; and the United States .small and medium banks can choose whether to adopt the Basel II standardized approach for the second edition. .Compromise also provides for several hours old and the new calculation method of the transfer, each transfer period is at least one year. .</ P> <P> exactly in 2008 is the world's banks are in precarious financial crisis, which also spare some time to Basel. .After the storm, which naturally this regulatory rules he's too short also. .Sure enough, the United States with the financial reform bill, the Basel Committee released the third edition of the agreement, strengthened its capital requirements. .</ P> <P> second edition from the Basel Accord died in the United States, we can see the limitations of international financial agreements. .First slowly, in dozens of countries the rationale for each side, each with different accounting systems and operational guidelines, is difficult to reach a consensus; the second is not enforceable, the Basel Committee is a no executive powers, no legal effect .international agencies, it only provides guidelines for the agreement, each country must finally decide whether to adopt their own. .</ P> <P> I hope the third edition of the Basel Protocol will not repeat the mistakes of the second edition - "the body die before their dreams." .</ P>.
