What impacts the CNY/USD exchange rate
The CNY/USD currency pair represents trading of the Chinese Renminbi - the official currency of China, against the US dollar, and is one of the most popular pairs to trade in the forex market. Representing two of the most powerful economies of the world, there is considerable interest in CNY/USD, although it is considered an exotic currency pair and requires expertise to trade.Each unit of the Renminbi is referred to as the Yuan. The central bank of China, People's Bank of China (PBOC), is responsible for regulating the value of the Yuan. The Chinese currency had been pegged to the US dollar until 2005 but its value is presently managed by the central bank by setting a midpoint rate on a daily basis against leading international currencies.The exchange rate of the CNY/USD is impacted heavily by international trade conditions, as China's economy is largely dependent on trade. In addition, this currency pair sees significant price action on the release of important economic data from China and the US, including GDP, CPI, consumer confidence, trade balance, manufacturing activity and PPI. Changes in monetary policy by the PBOC and the Federal Reserve also influence the value of the Chinese Yuan and the US dollar.
