Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The PBOC argued that China's export strength is rooted in industrial competitiveness rather than exchange rates. The statement cited that from 2020 to 2021, China's share of global exports increased by 1.7 percentage points even as the RMB appreciated by about 9 percent against the U.S. dollar.
