China Makes Changes to Currency Basket

Share Print 0

Call it a New Year’s greeting from the Chinese government to the incoming administration of Donald Trump.

As the president-elect rang in 2017 entertaining guests at his opulent Mar-a-Lago estate, China quietly ushered in a series of measures aimed at better controlling the value of its local currency, the yuan.

Throughout his campaign, Trump accused China of “manipulating” the yuan to make Chinese exports more competitive in global markets. China’s latest announcement will likely add fuel to that debate.
