China's FX reserve managers defend their record

BEIJING: The managers of China's hoard of currency reserves defended their investment record on Tuesday, saying they had avoided big losses during the global crisis and voicing confidence they could achieve stable long-term returns.

The State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) said it had realised "relatively good returns" in 2008 and 2009 when the international financial crisis was raging.

"In any specific year, the investment return on our foreign exchange reserves may not be very high, but we are confident of achieving good, stable returns in the long term," it said.

Worries this year have centred on Europe after Greece's failure to roll over its bonds prompted euro zone governments and the IMF to sling a safety net under the entire bloc in case of a fresh market emergency.

SAFE said the measures had worked so far in staving off debt defaults or restructuring and Europe would remain a key investment market for China's reserve managers.

"We believe Europe, with the joint efforts of the international community, will overcome its difficulties and maintain financial market stability and healthy development," SAFE said.

One of the prime concerns is the long-run health of the dollar. If the US currency weakens, SAFE's vast holdings of US securities, mainly bonds, will be worth less when translated back into yuan.

But SAFE explained that any currency translation losses are only on paper and would not be realised unless the central bank were to sell its reserves -- something that it said was impossible to imagine unless there was a war or a huge crisis.

What's more, if the yuan appreciates, currency translation losses will be outweighed by book gains from rising asset prices, the agency said on its website.

SAFE also took head-on worries?about China's investments in the US mortgage financing agencies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

SAFE had not bought shares of Fannie and Freddie, and the delisting of the agencies' shares had not affected the value of their bonds, which are a favourite with central bank reserve managers.

"At present, principal and interest payments on Fannie and Freddie bonds are normal, and the prices of the bonds are stable.

"We will continue to closely follow relevant developments at Fannie and Freddie to ensure the safety of our foreign exchange reserve assets," the statement said.
