國際貨幣基金組織執行董事會完成特別提款權審議，同意人民幣加入特別提款權貨幣籃子

The Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) today completed the regular five-yearly review of the basket of currencies that make up the Special Drawing Right (SDR). A key focus of the Board review was whether the Chinese renminbi (RMB) met the existing criteria to be included in the basket.

國際貨幣基金組織(基金組織)執行董事會今天完成了五年一度的特別提款權貨幣籃子組成的審議工作。此次執董會審議的一個主要焦點是人民幣是否符合現有標準，從而可以被納入特別提款權貨幣籃子。

The Board today decided that the RMB met all existing criteria and, effective October 1, 2016 the RMB is determined to be a freely usable currency and will be included in the SDR basket as a fifth currency, along with the U.S. dollar, the euro, the Japanese yen and the British pound. Launching the new SDR basket on October 1, 2016 will provide sufficient lead time for the Fund, its members and other SDR users to adjust to these changes.

執董會決定認為，人民幣符合所有現有標準，自2016年10月1日起，人民幣被認定為可自由使用貨幣，并將作為第五種貨幣，與美元、歐元、日元和英鎊，一道構成特別提款權貨幣籃子。為確保基金組織、基金組織成員及其它特別提款權使用方有充足時間進行調整以適應新的變化，新的貨幣籃子將于2016年10月1日正式生效。

At the conclusion of the meeting, Ms. Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the IMF, stated:

執董會會議結束之后，國際貨幣基金組織總裁拉加德女士表示：

“The Executive Board's decision to include the RMB in the SDR basket is an important milestone in the integration of the Chinese economy into the global financial system. It is also a recognition of the progress that the Chinese authorities have made in the past years in reforming China’s monetary and financial systems.

“執董會關于將人民幣納入特別提款權貨幣籃子的決定是中國經濟融入全球金融體系的一個重要里程碑。它是對中國當局在過去多年來在改革其貨幣和金融體系方面取得的成就的認可。

The continuation and deepening of these efforts will bring about a more robust international monetary and financial system, which in turn will support the growth and stability of China and the global economy.”

中國在這一領域的持續推進和深化將推動建立一個更加充滿活力的國際貨幣和金融體系。這又會支持中國和全球經濟的發展和穩定”。

The value of the SDR will be based on a weighted average of the values of the basket of currencies comprising the U.S. dollar, euro, the Chinese renminbi, Japanese yen, and British pound. The inclusion of the RMB will enhance the attractiveness of the SDR by diversifying the basket and making it more representative of the world’s major currencies.

特別提款權的價值將由包括美元、歐元、人民幣、日元和英鎊在內的籃子貨幣的加權平均值決定。人民幣納入特別提款權貨幣籃子將使得貨幣籃子多元化和更能代表全球主要貨幣，從而有助于提高特別提款權作為儲備資產的吸引力。

The SDR interest rate will continue to be determined as a weighted average of the interest rates on short-term financial instruments in the markets of the currencies in the SDR basket. Authorities of all currencies represented in the SDR basket, which now includes the Chinese authorities, are expected to maintain a policy framework that facilitates operations for the IMF, its membership and other SDR users in their currencies. The paper presented to the Board will be released soon.

特別提款權的利率將繼續由特別提款權籃子貨幣的貨幣市場短期金融工具利率的加權平均值確定。特別提款權籃子中所有貨幣的發行國的當局(目前也包括中國當局)都應維持能便利基金組織及其成員國和特別提款權的其他使用方以其貨幣開展業務操作的政策框架。執董會討論的文件將于近期散發。(以上為聲明)
