深化两岸货币合作

随着两岸货币清算体系的建立,两岸货币合作进入新的历史阶段,极大促进了两岸间贸易投资的自由化和便利化两岸货币合作进入直接合作阶段两岸货币合作主要是指两岸货币监管部门就人民币与新台币的汇兑、结算等业务所作出的制度安排。自1987年以来,伴随两岸人员往来和经贸交流不断发展,两岸货币合作逐步推进。     

两岸货币清算开启“直航时代”

两岸货币清算机制的建立,将降低两岸民众和企业的汇兑成本和汇率风险,促进两岸投资贸易更为便利,进一步深化和扩大两岸经济合作。这一举措顺应了两岸各界的呼声和期盼,符合两岸双方的共同利益,对于实现两岸经济互利双赢、共同发展具有十分重要的意义。     

两岸会计准则框架的综合比较分析

我国改革开放以来,海峡两岸经济蓬勃的发展。但是在两岸经济协调促进的发展进程中,有关两岸会计准则框架的差异,则影响了两岸经济的发展速度。对两岸会计准则框架进行综合比较,充分了解会计准则的异同点,将有益于降低贸易成本,促进两岸经济的共同发展。本文以两岸会计准则的几个具体方面为研究对象,对会计准则框架进行综合的比较分析。

两岸金融合作的新契机

近日,大陆海协会与台湾海基会经历5次会谈,正式签署两岸经济合作框架协议（ECFA）和两岸知识产权保护合作协议,标志着两岸经贸合作步入正常化、制度化、机制化轨道,也是推动两岸经济合作的一个新的里程碑。有了这样一份平等协商、互利互赢的协议,我们有充分理由相信两岸彼此之间的贸易和投资障碍必将逐步减少和消除,一个有利于两岸经济繁荣与发展的合作机制正在形成。当前,大陆支持福建加快海峡西岸经济区建设,在促进两岸交流合作方面充分发挥优势,大胆先行先试;最近又批准将厦门经济特区扩大到全市。这种两岸大交流、大合作的势头有利于共创两岸和谐共进、繁荣发展的共同愿景。     

新台币管理与两岸货币流通研究

长期以来,人民币在我国台湾地区流通与新台币在大陆地区流通具有不对称性。本文从两岸间货币流通的角度出发,对货币流通管理政策演化、两岸民间货币流通现状进行比较分析,结合两岸经贸、金融活动的主要特征及《海峡两岸货币清算合作备忘录》签署后两岸货币合作中的新情况,分析两岸货币流通与管理面临的机遇和挑战,探索两岸货币直接清算机制并对大陆新台币管理与两岸货币流通提出政策建议。     

经济全球化、劳动力转移与我国沿海-内陆地区工资差距的实证分析

采用Theil指数量化了我国地区工资差距,并将其分解为沿海和内陆地区内和地区间的工资差距;分析FDI、出口溢出、劳动力转移等影响沿海一内陆工资差距的机制,建立实证模型,采用我国省际面板数据进行了实证研究.结论表明,FDI的地区分布差距对于工资差距的影响表现为倒U型机制,地区间的出口溢出和跨地区的劳动力转移扩大了沿海一内陆工资差距,教育投入、技术进步等也是影响地区工资差距的重要因素.     

两岸银行业发展迎来最好时机

两岸＂大经贸、小金融＂的不平衡格局早已引发业内人士的关注。 大陆是台湾最大贸易伙伴、出口市场和顺差来源地（两岸贸易总额占当年台湾对外贸易总额超过21%）,台湾也是大陆第七大贸易伙伴、第九大出口市场和第五大进口来源地。两岸在经贸往来上已经形成唇齿相依、相互促进的良好局面。     

Globalization and the Gender Wage Gap

There are several theoretical reasons why globalization willhave a narrowing as well as a widening effect on the genderwage gap, but little is known about the actual impact, exceptfor some country studies. This study contributes to the literaturein three respects. First, it is a large cross-country studyof the impact of globalization on the gender wage gap. Second,it employs the rarely used ILO October Inquiry database, whichis the most far-ranging survey of wages around the world. Third,it focuses on the within-occupation gender wage gap, an alternativeto the commonly used raw and residual wage gaps as a measureof the gender wage gap. This study finds that the occupationalgender wage gap tends to decrease with increasing economic development,at least in richer countries, and to decrease with trade andforeign direct investment (FDI) in richer countries, but findslittle evidence that trade and FDI also reduce the occupationalgender wage gap in poorer countries.     

Real Wage Rigidities and the New Keynesian Model

Most central banks perceive a trade‐off between stabilizing inflation and stabilizing the gap between output and desired output. However, the standard new Keynesian framework implies no such trade‐off. In that framework, stabilizing inflation is equivalent to stabilizing the welfare‐relevant output gap. In this paper, we argue that this property of the new Keynesian framework, which we call the divine coincidence, is due to a special feature of the model: the absence of nontrivial real imperfections. We focus on one such real imperfection, namely, real wage rigidities. When the baseline new Keynesian model is extended to allow for real wage rigidities, the divine coincidence disappears, and central banks indeed face a trade‐off between stabilizing inflation and stabilizing the welfare‐relevant output gap. We show that not only does the extended model have more realistic normative implications, but it also has appealing positive properties. In particular, it provides a natural interpretation for the dynamic inflation–unemployment relation found in the data.     

劳动力成本对中国加工贸易规模及转型升级的影响

本文以中国《最低工资规定》的出台作为准自然实验,基于2000-2013年企业层面微观数据,采用双重差分法系统研究了劳动力成本上升对企业加工贸易规模及转型升级的影响。本文发现,劳动力成本上升虽然缩小了企业加工贸易规模,但通过倒逼机制促进了加工贸易企业转型升级。进一步的机制检验表明,劳动力成本上升促进了加工贸易企业增加固定资产投资、扩大研发创新和在职培训的投入力度、提高生产效率,进而推动了企业加工贸易升级。最后,本文还在城市层面研究了劳动力成本、资源配置与加工贸易升级的关系,结果表明,出口市场份额再配置是劳动力成本上升促进城市加工贸易升级的重要途径:一方面,劳动力成本上升促进了出口市场份额向竞争力较强的存续加工企业再配置,另一方面,劳动力成本上升加速了低竞争力加工企业退出。本文一方面丰富了评估最低工资经济效应的研究,另一方面有助于理解中国加工贸易转型升级背后的驱动因素。     

Macroeconomic impact of the Sino–U.S. trade frictions: Based on a two-country,two-sector DSGE model

To examine the impact of the recent Sino–U.S. trade frictions on the macroeconomics of China and the United States, we constructed a two-country, two-sector dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model. This model was used to explore the tariff transmission mechanism in such trade frictions and provide a basic analytical framework for future research on bilateral trade frictions. Based on our benchmark analysis, the tariff shocks affect non-tradable sectors through the tradable sectors, which, in turn, have impacted consumption, investments, prices, and production. Specifically, the tariffs on intermediate and final goods affect the economy from the supply and demand sides, respectively, and as the trade dependence decreases, the economic volatility caused by the tariff shocks also decreases. Moreover, our simulation showed that the impact of the trade frictions on the macroeconomics of the two countries has been asymmetrical, which is consistent with the objective economic realities.     

The Effect of Inflation on Wage Inequality: A North–South Monetary Model of Endogenous Growth with International Trade

This study analyzes the effects of inflation on intra- and intercounty wage inequality, specialization, and growth, using a North–South endogenous growth model with international trade and money. The relationship between inflation and intracountry wage inequality depends on firms' credit constraints and on the inflation levels. Our results indicate that inflation decreases specialization in skilled production and increases intracountry wage inequality. Moreover, increasing inflation in the South increases the wage inequality gap between countries. Theoretical results are confirmed through calibration and match with existing empirical evidence.     

How Do Nominal and Real Rigidities Interact? A Tale of the Second Best

This paper analyzes the importance of real wage rigidities, in particular through their interaction with price stickiness, in a New Keynesian model. Real wage rigidities result from a combination of staggered wage setting and partial indexation of nonreset wages to past inflation. Blanchard and Galí (2007) show real rigidities to introduce a trade‐off between stabilizing inflation and the welfare‐relevant output gap. The present paper complements their findings by showing that the welfare costs of real rigidities can be substantial compared to nominal frictions. In a typical “tale of the second best,” we also show that in the presence of real wage rigidities, higher price stickiness can be welfare enhancing.     

进口与企业员工收入——以中国制造业企业为例

进口企业的职工工资直接关系到企业员工的民生福祉和劳动力市场的就业稳定性。本文基于中国制造业微观企业数据,就进口贸易对企业职工收入的影响进行深入考察,结果表明:(1)进口有利于提高企业职工的平均工资水平,不过这种正向的“工资提升”效应在长期不具有持续性。(2)中介效应检验表明,进口通过竞争效应和激励效应作用于企业的工资水平。进一步使用倍差法、工具变量法等的估计结果也证实了上述结论的稳健性。(3)进口对企业工资水平的影响因企业所有制、是否出口、进口产品类型以及进口来源国的不同而具有显著的异质性。(4)引入劳动收入份额的分析表明,进口显著降低了企业的劳动收入份额。具体地,进口的“生产率提升效应”影响超过了“工资提升效应”影响。

基于静态博弈的中美贸易摩擦的对策分析

中美贸易摩擦的产生有经济与政治等多方面的因素,其主要原因是美国限制资本与技术密集型产品对中国的出口。中美双方都应该采取积极的态度寻求解决贸易摩擦办法。美国需要采取一些务实的的行动,不纠缠于对华贸易逆差,取消对华高新技术出口的限制等;而中国可以采取促进产业升级,扩大内需以及实施市场多元化战略等方法。     

Regional Transfer of Haze Pollutants Embodied in China’s Foreign Trade and Factors Affecting It: A GMRIO-Based Empirical Analysis

The paper estimated the balance of emissions embodied in bilateral trade and the pollution terms of trade between China and six major world economies, including USA, Japan, and others, from 1995 to 2009, and then discussed the factors affecting them using the Structural Decomposition Analysis method. We find that, with the exception of Taiwan, the balances of the haze pollutants emissions embodied in bilateral trades were negative between China and the each of the rest five, and this was mainly resulted from the China export scale effect and intermediate input structural effects. We also find that China has become the “Pollution Refuge” for the economies like USA and Japan.
