    Highlights 

    In December 2006, the month-to-month percentage change
in the Renminbi Pressure Indicator (RPI) was 0.99 percent.
China's foreign exchange reserves rose to US$1.07
trillion.

    Analysis 

    The RPI rose by 0.99 percent, from 192.2 to 194.1 in
December. The gain was attributable to appreciation of the
yuan and an increase in foreign exchange reserves, which
increased nearly US$27.6 billion from November.  The rate
of yuan appreciation against the U.S. dollar slowed to 0.31
percent, from 0.59 percent in November, while growth in
China's foreign exchange reserves also slowed to 2.67
percent, from 2.89 percent.  Of the 0.99 percent growth in
RPI, the yuan appreciation accounted for a 0.10 percentage
point increase, and growth in reserves contributed the
remaining 0.89 percentage point increase.  There was no
change in domestic interest rates. In January and February
2007, the rates of yuan appreciation against the dollar
grew to 0.40 and 0.47 percent, respectively.  Outlook: With
the likelihood of further appreciation, build-up in foreign
exchange reserves and increases in interest rates, the RPI
should continue to increase.

    Methodology 

    The RPI is based on a monthly examination of the
interaction between the following variables to compute
overall cumulative exchange rate pressure: the percentage
change in the spot exchange rate, the percentage change in
foreign exchange reserves, and the change in domestic
interest rates. 

    The indicator measures the pressure on China's currency
relative to the U.S. dollar. It is set equal to 100 on
January 1, 2000. Increases in the RPI reflect appreciation
pressure on the renminbi (RMB).
