S&P says yuan float could hit China ratings
Reuters, 09.15.03, 2:57 AM ET
SINGAPORE, Sept 15 (Reuters) - International ratings agency Standard & Poor's said on Monday that a flotation of China's currency would be dangerous and could damage the country's debt rating.

S&P said the Chinese banking system was insolvent and ill-equipped to handle volatility in the exchange rate. Any move to a floating currency would also hurt the ratings of local banks, it said in a statement.

China's yuan, also known as the renminbi, is effectively pegged to the U.S. dollar around 8.28 yuan, a level that has been criticised by Japanese, U.S. and European policymakers as too weak and not reflecting recent strong growth in China's economy.
