摘要
This study investigates the impact of improved central parity quotations in the Chinese Renminbi on price discovery in onshore (USD/CNY) and offshore (USD/CNH) markets. Chinese news releases refer to the gross domestic product, trade balances, and foreign exchange reserves; U.S. news features information on the meetings, statements, and minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee. They all have positive impacts on price discovery in the USD/CNH market. The greater contribution by the USD/CNH market to price discovery can be attributed to an improved quotation policy, which has enabled central parity to incorporate and transmit more USD/CNH information to the USD/CNY market.
