🇨🇳 About the Chinese Yuan (CNY)

The Chinese Yuan (Renminbi) is the currency of the world's second-largest economy and largest exporter. Unlike most major currencies, it is managed within a controlled trading band rather than floating freely.

Issuing authority: People's Bank of China (PBOC).

🇯🇵 About the Japanese Yen (JPY)

The Japanese Yen is the third most traded currency and the most traded in Asia. It is widely used as a funding currency for the carry trade because of Japan's traditionally low interest rates, and it strengthens as a safe haven in times of market stress.

Issuing authority: Bank of Japan (BOJ).

What Moves the CNY/JPY Exchange Rate?

The CNY to JPY rate reflects the relative strength of two different economies, so it responds to developments on both sides of the pair.

Chinese Yuan (CNY): PBOC's daily reference rate and managed float, China's trade surplus, capital flow controls, and US-China trade relations.

Japanese Yen (JPY): Bank of Japan ultra-loose monetary policy and any shift away from it, the interest rate gap with the US, and safe-haven demand during global risk-off periods.

When demand for the Chinese Yuan rises relative to the Japanese Yen, the CNY/JPY rate increases, meaning each CNY buys more JPY. The opposite happens when the Japanese Yen strengthens.
