IMF Urges Boosting of Yuan -
Inflation, real-estate bubbles and weak monetary controls pose
"significant risks to financial and macroeconomic stability" in China,
and Beijing should boost the value of its currency to combat those
threats, the International Monetary Fund said.
The IMF used its annual review of China's economy to lay out a broad agenda of change for China—including a stronger currency, higher interest rates, reduced advantages for big state-owned enterprises and a liberalized financial sector. Such changes were necessary, the IMF argued to improve Chinese living standards and reduce conflict with its trading partners.

The IMF declared the yuan to be "substantially" undervalued. An IMF panel estimated the yuan is undervalued between 3% and 23%, depending on the methodology used.
Over the past year, the Fund estimated that the value of China's currency against all its trading partners actually fell by about 2% adjusted for inflation. Against the dollar, though, it gained about 8% after inflation over the past year.
