Abstract

The Europeans regard monetary arrangements as a key element of the overwhelming effort to never again allow hostilities to flare up on their continent. For Taiwan and China, a monetary coordination mechanism may also be appealing in order to eliminate hostilities caused by the Chinese civil war since 1949. Due to certain historical and geopolitical reasons, the impact of a China-Taiwan Economic Union on the world can not be measured by its economic scale only. On the basis of Robert Mundell's earlier proposal and the current development of the European Monetary Union, this paper provides a framework to analyze whether the establishment of a Chinese monetary union (CMU) could be sustained after suffering various economic shocks. We assume that a Chinese central bank coordinates the single monetary policy of the Chinese Economic Area and that China and Taiwan maintain their fiscal independence. An international policy coordination approach is used to simulate possible outcomes if the CMU were to be implemented. The simulation indicates that the U.S. and Japan may suffer welfare losses if China and Taiwan insist on their monetary unification. However, if both the U.S. and Japan accept the CMU, further international policy coordination may help them decrease such kind of losses. The analysis is preliminary but may be helpful in considering the East Asian economic policies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The article presents information related to the economic policies of Taiwan. Despite the politicization of cross-Strait economic policy, the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) government will continue in its efforts to improve economic relations and trade links with China. The government's disinclination to reduce fiscal expenditure as a proportion of GDP reflects its rising social security commitments, along with special offbudget packages and spending on infrastructure, which will undermine its efforts in 2006-2007 to achieve improvement in the public finances. Information on Taiwan's monetary policy is also offered in the article.

Abstract

This article focuses on the performance of the Taiwanese stockmarket, as of September 1997. Catapulted through the 7,000-point barrier on both the words of Lu Yung-ying, chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission and a tide of bullish news, Taiwan's market has sored to new heights to become the world's seventh best performing stockmarket this year. The fundamentals including a favorable economic environment, a supportive government and ample liquidity were already in place before the chairman's catalytic words and have continued to support the market throughout this first half. It has been the favorable macroeconomic back-drop which has allowed the government to be so supportive. A fragile economy, which has allowed the government to pursue a loose monetary policy, has ensured ample liquidity during the first half of the year.

Abstract

This article reports that effective July 7, 1995, the Central Bank permitted banks in Taiwan to deal in non-delivery foreign exchange forward transactions to give additional leverage to banks and companies for better protection against possible foreign exchange trading risks. In order to reduce the pressure from trade surpluses on the domestic money supply and on the value of the Taiwanese dollar, and to minimize the inevitable intervention of foreign exchange control, the authorities relaxed most of the rulings on foreign exchange control in July 1987. This relaxation was an important turning point in the promotion of international trade and overseas investment of this country. Under the new system, current account transactions have been completely liberalized.

Abstract

This article focuses on the Taiwan dollar, the local currency of Taiwan, that is is being used as of September 1997. The currency has been considered stable in value in recent years compared with many other currencies. Several important factors may influence the exchange rate of the local currency; among these are the international value of the U.S. dollar in relation to other currencies, the interest rate differentials between the domestic and foreign markets, the obvious trend of the Taiwanese dollar, trade balances, outward investments, inflows of foreign and overseas Chinese investments, travel expenditures, short-term capital movements, and the attitude and intervention policies of the monetary authorities. In addition, political concerns such as changes in the nature of cross strait relations between the country and China should be taken into account when considering the short-term fluctuation of the dollar.
