Is RMB increasingly important? A Network Approach

Yiming Wang and Yinggang Zhou* (Xiamen University)

Abstract

With an innovative network approach, this study presents strong evidence of Renminbi (RMB)'s growing influence globally and regionally. We identify networks of exchange rate spillovers and examine time-varying spillover intensities among RMB and major global and Asian currencies. Shocks from RMB, especially the offshore RMB exchange rate known as the CNH, generate intensifying spillovers across global currencies in general and Asian currencies in particular. The centrality of RMB in the network has increased steadily over time. Our findings highlight that RMB is increasingly important as China initiates market reforms of its currency .
