https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2008/03/discussion-paper-2008-5/
China's integration into the world economy has benefited its people by reducing poverty and raising living standards, and it has benefited the industrialized world by producing manufactured goods at lower cost. It has also raised geopolitical concerns as China's power grows, economic concerns as the manufacturing base in many industrialized countries erodes, and polemics as proposals of protectionist measures to counter China's export growth are put forward.2008-03-21T13:28:16+00:00enChina's Exchange Rate Policy: A Survey of the Literature2008-03-21Exchange rate regimesDiscussion Paper 2008-5https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/dp08-5.pdfChina’s Exchange Rate Policy: A Survey of the LiteratureRobert LafranceMarch 2008FF3F33F36Sterilized Intervention in Emerging-Market Economies: Trends, Costs, and Risks
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2008/03/discussion-paper-2008-4/
