At G20 Meeting China’s Zhou Kept Saying the Bubble ‘Burst’ – Investment Advice By CWIIL Group of Companies

Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of China’s central bank, said three times to a G20 gathering that a bubble in his country had “burst,” Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso said.

It came up in his explanation Friday of what is going on with China’s stock market, according to a Japanese finance ministry official.

A dissection of the slowdown of the world’s second-largest economy and talk about the equity route which erased $5 trillion of value was a focal point at the meeting of global policy makers in Ankara. That wasn’t enough for Aso, who said that the discussions hadn’t been constructive.

Chinese stocks have plunged almost 40 percent since a June peak, triggering unprecedented intervention from the authorities. The central bank cut rates for the fifth time since November last month and lowered the amount of cash banks must set aside, falling back on its major levers to support equity prices and the slowing economy.

It was China, rather than the timing of an interest-rate increase by the Federal Reserve, that dominated the discussion, according to the Japanese official, with many people commenting that China’s sluggish economic performance is a risk to the global economy and especially to emerging-market nations.

Chinese Statement

Zhou was referring to a bubble in the stock market rather than the Chinese economy, Zhu Jun, head of the international department of the People’s Bank of China, said in an interview on Saturday, and the central bank put out a statement detailing Zhou’s remarks at the conference.

“It’s clear there are problems in the Chinese market, and at today’s G20 meeting, many people other than myself also expressed that opinion,” Aso said after a meeting of finance chiefs and central bank governors.

The PBOC shocked global markets by allowing the biggest yuan depreciation in two decades on Aug. 11, when it changed the exchange-rate mechanism to give markets a bigger role in setting the currency’s level. That historic move would not get a mention in the communique, according to the Japanese official, who asked not to be named, citing ministry policy.

G20 Binds China to FX Peace Pact for Post-Bubble Cleanup – Investment Consultancy By CWIIL Group

Global finance chiefs persuaded China to join a foreign-exchange peace pact as they sought to contain the tensions unleashed by the country’s stock-market rout and its August devaluation.

Finance ministers and central bankers from the Group of 20 nations pledged Saturday to “refrain from competitive devaluations” in the final communique from their two-day meeting in Ankara. That’s the first time the G-20 has used such language since 2013.

China is on the defensive as its slowing economy and market turbulence send shock waves through emerging markets just as the U.S. is preparing to raise interest rates. With the MSCI emerging market index down 18 percent so far this year, an earlier version of the statement prepared before the meeting cited “recent volatility in financial markets” and the need to monitor potential spillovers.

The Chinese delegation’s presentation was the main focus of the two-day meeting, Spanish Economy Minister Luis de Guindos said.

“There’s been an excess of investment and an excess of indebtedness – it will take time to clean up those excesses,” Guindos told reporters. “They are heading to a new normal situation for them, which will be growth around 6 or 7 percent.”

China’s surprise decision to revalue the yuan as it tried to contain the stock market turmoil caused the currency to drop the most in 21 years last month, triggering exchange-rate declines elsewhere in the emerging world on concern that a weaker yuan will hurt countries exporting to China.

‘It Wasn’t Enough’

Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of China’s central bank, told his counterparts that his country had had to deal with the bursting of a stock market bubble as he described policy makers’ plans, according to Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso.

“It wasn’t enough,” Aso told reporters. “They may have tried to be constructive, but they weren’t detailed enough.”

The Chinese delegation said it was trying to limit disruption as the economy shifts to a different growth model, according to an international official participating in the talks. It said it is trying to reduce indebtedness and planning measures that will regulate swings in the stock market.

The last time the G-20 issued such a firm statement against currency wars Japan was in the spotlight as its campaign of monetary stimulus pushed the yen to its lowest level against the dollar in more than three years. China allowed the yuan to drop after the Shanghai Composite index lost about 40 percent from a three-year high in June.

“China is definitely trying to play a constructive role,” Canadian Finance Minister Joe Oliver said in an interview. “It is the second-largest economy in the world and so when it slows down it has global implications. That is I think what we are dealing with.”

Stability Forecast

The Chinese delegation said the currency move wasn’t an attempt to grab exports from its international competitors and that explanation was accepted by the other nations, according to the international official.

“No one can predict exactly on the market volatility, but I’m confident that the renminbi exchange rate will be more or less stable around the equilibrium level,” Yi Gang, China’s deputy central bank governor, said in an interview as he headed into Friday’s session. “The Chinese economy’s fundamentals are fine.”

The Chinese asked for specific references to their problems to be left out of the final communique, a euro-area aide said.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob J. Lew told Chinese Finance Minister Lou Jiwei in Ankara on Friday that it’s important for China to signal that it will allow market pressures to drive the yuan up as well as down. China should avoid persistent exchange-rate misalignments and refrain from competitive devaluation, Lew said, according to a Treasury statement.

Fed Hikes

China’s slowdown comes as the Federal Reserve is considering raising U.S. interest rates for the first time in nine years. Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer explained the arguments for and against an early increase in U.S. interest rates, de Guindos said.

The draft statement said that in line with the improving outlook, “monetary policy tightening is more likely in some advanced economies, which may remain one of the main sources of uncertainty in financial markets.”

Some delegates from emerging markets said at the meeting that the Fed should get on with raising rates to end uncertainty, according to an official who was present.
