Abstract

The article reports on the signs of a decline in the growing foreign reserves of China, boosted mainly by its trade surplus and foreign direct investment. According to Cai Qiusheng, a senior official at the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), the agency's statistics showed that the foreign reserves had declined for the first time since December 2003. The decline meant that some foreign investors withdrew their money out of mainland markets to invest in safe havens elsewhere in the midst of the global financial crisis.

Abstract

The article reports on the statement issued by Zeti Akhtar Aziz, governor of Bank Negara Malaysia, that the foreign-currency reserve funds of the country would not be affected under a proposal for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to become a sort of global central bank. Aziz cites that the flaw in the reasoning of the IMF is that the reserves of the country come from foreign-capital inflows, which change from year to year. She adds that the IMF seems to believe that reserves come from establishing a trade surplus by undervaluing the local currency.
