What Prompts the People＇s Bank of China to Change Its Monetary Policy Stance？ Evidence from a Discrete Choice Model

In the present paper, we model the policy stance of the People＇s Bank of China （PBC） as a latent variable, and the discrete changes in the reserve requirement ratio, policy interest rates, and the scale of open market operations are taken as signals of movement of this latent variable. We run a discrete choice regression that relates these observed indicators of policy stance to major trends of macroeconomic and financial developments, which are represented by common factors extracted from a large number of variables. The predicted value of the estimated model can then be interpreted as the implicit policy stance of the PBC. In a second step, we estimate how much of the variation in the PBC＇ s implicit stance can be explained by measures of its policy objectives on inflation, growth and financial stability. We find that deviations of CPI inflation from an implicit target and deviations of broad money growth from the announced targets, but not output gaps, figure significantly in the PBC＇s policy changes.

中国退休制度危机没想像般严重

多年来我一直对中国的社会保障和退休金问题很感兴趣，也做过一些这方面的研究，我选择谈这个题目，其中一个原因，我想跟大家说明的是，在你研究某个题目时，你会发现，当初以为可以圆满解决问题的方法，其实完全不是那回事。我打算讨论的问题的解决方法，其实较大家所想像的简单得多。
