The State Administration of Foreign Exchange has recently released data on banks' foreign exchange sales and settlements and banks' foreign-related receipts and payments for customers for November 2019. SAFE Press Spokesperson and Chief Economist Wang Chunying answered media questions on foreign exchange receipts and payments for the month. Q: Could you brief us on China's foreign exchange receipts and payments for November 2019? A: Banks' foreign exchange sales and settlements and foreign-related receipts and payments remained stable in the month, indicating a continued equilibrium in the foreign exchange market. First, banks' foreign exchange sales and settlements stayed stable at large. Although a deficit of USD 5.6 billion was recorded in banks' foreign exchange sales and settlements in the month, which was consistent with the monthly average in the year to date, yet with other supply and demand factors considered, including forward foreign exchange sales and settlements and options, China's foreign exchange market remained in an equilibrium. Second, banks' foreign-related receipts for customers were basically offset by their foreign-related payments for customers. Also in the month the non-banking sectors including enterprises and individuals registered a deficit of USD 500 million in foreign-related receipts and payments. Market players' desire to settle foreign exchange was strengthened and cross-border capital flows through major channels were further stabilized. In the month, the foreign exchange settlement ratio, a measure of customers' desire to settle foreign exchange, or the ratio of customers' sales of foreign exchange to banks to their foreign-related foreign exchange receipts, hit 63%, up by 3 percentage points year on year; the foreign exchange sales ratio, a measure of customers' desire to purchase foreign exchange, or the ratio of customers' purchases of foreign exchange from banks to their foreign-related foreign exchange payments, was 67%, flat with the same period last year. As far as major channels of cross-border capital flows are concerned, foreign exchange supply and demand were more stable. Also in the month, cross-border receipts and payments under trade in goods represented a surplus of USD 6.9 billion, vs. a deficit of USD 700 million for the same period last year; the surplus in foreign exchange sales and settlements under trade in goods grew 2.1 times year on year; net foreign exchange settlements for direct investment grew remarkably; but individuals' net purchases of foreign exchange went down by 16% year on year. Currently, China's economic fundamentals are stable and sound, and will remain sound over the long term. Guided by the new development philosophy, we will pursue supply-side structural reform as our main task and work for high-quality development, fueled by reform and opening up. We will endeavor to keep major economic indicators within an appropriate range, and promote all-round opening up to solidify the foundation for stable operations of China's foreign exchange markets. Further, China-US Phase-1 trade talks have achieved progress, which will be favorable for the benign economic and trade growth across the world and provide a more stable external environment for the operations of China's foreign exchange market. 2019-12-20/en/2019/1220/1617.html

To further facilitate cross-border investment and financing by Macao-funded enterprises in Hengqin, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) has introduced relevant policy initiatives as we are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Macao's return to China. The highlights are as follows: first, piloting for the external debt registration and management reform. Macao-funded enterprises in Hengqin will be allowed to register with local foreign exchange authorities their external debt that can be twice as much as net assets, and to go through outward and inward remittances, foreign exchange settlement and purchase processes with banks directly. Second, flexibly adjusting the borrowing model. Macao-funded enterprises in Hengqin can flexibly adjust their borrowing model based on their needs. For example, they can shift from the investment-registered capital difference model to the macro-prudential model. Third, loosening restrictions on currencies for external debt. Macao-funded enterprises in Hengqin will be allowed to use different currencies for contracting from currencies for withdrawals and repayment. Fourth, piloting outbound transfers of domestic credit assets. The scope of outbound transfers of domestic credit assets will be expanded in terms of players and channels. Fifth, facilitating the use of revenues under the capital account by Macao-funded enterprises in Hengqin. Macao-funded enterprises in Hengqin will not need to provide authenticity supporting materials to banks on a transaction-by-transaction basis when using revenues under the capital account for domestic payments. Sixth, further simplifying relevant transaction processes. Macao-funded enterprises in Hengqin can make combined payments based on payment order letter and application letter for domestic remittances for transactions under the capital account. Next, the SAFE will promote the implementation of beneficial policies for Macao-funded enterprises to support the economic, trade, investment and financing growth in Macao. 2019-12-20/en/2019/1220/1616.html

Q: The State Administration of Foreign Exchange has just released the latest data on foreign exchange reserves. Could you explain why those changes occurred in November 2019? What would be the future trends of foreign exchange reserves? A: By the end of November 2019, China's foreign exchange reserves had hit USD 3.0956 trillion, up by USD 22.9 billion or 0.7% from the beginning of the year China's foreign exchange market was in an equilibrium in November, with overall market expectations staying stable. Along with global economic growth, expectations of monetary policies, and trade situations, the US Dollar Index rose slightly and bond prices fell in major countries. The valuation factors like exchange rate conversion and asset price changes were the major contributors to the changes in foreign exchange reserves for the month. In the year to date, China's economy has continued its growth momentum of maintaining overall stability while achieving progress, with major indicators falling in the reasonable ranges, and therefore, China has effectively coped with increasing risks and challenges from global markets. Thanks to this, China's balance of payments has remained in an equilibrium and its foreign exchange reserves have stayed stable. Although the global economic growth is slowing down and there are many destabilizing factors and uncertainties externally, China's economy features ample resilience, enormous potential and large room for strengthening, so our economic fundamentals will remain sound over the long term. We will also adopt the new development concepts to drive the high quality economic growth and advance the higher-level opening up, which will be favorable for stable operations of China's foreign exchange market and underpin the overall stability of foreign exchange reserves. 2019-12-07/en/2019/1207/1606.html
