2、，“美联储将会按其以往的方式做出决策 ”也就是通过观察各种经济指标来做出决策， 其中就包括失业率。几个月以来，美国的失业率一直徘徊在 10%左右。如果美国的失业率持续高企，美联储出台第三轮量化宽松货币（ QE）政策的可能性就将不断增加。但如果美国继续执行 QE 政策，将会在世界各地遭致抗议，其中的代表就是中国。前两轮量化宽松政策分别于 2009 年 3 月和 2010 年 11 月开始实施，期间，美联储大量印钞用以购买银行的债券以及抵押贷款证券 购买的目的旨在刺激美国的经济发展，降低借贷成本。但是，全球各地都能听到这样的批评：第二轮量化宽松政策同样触发了全球商品价格的急剧飙升，北京的官员对此深

3、表认同，并称，热钱因此流入了自己的国家。他们认为，如果出台第三轮量化宽松政策，也将会产生这样的结果。就这种担心的理由是否充分的问题，专家各执一词。上海复旦大学国际经济学教授田素华指出，第二轮量化宽松政策对中国的影响比第一轮更大。“第一轮量化宽松政策只是通过贸易渠道影响到了中国， 而在实 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献施第二轮量化宽松政策期间，美国的银行和抵押贷款公司发放信贷的能力得到了加强，所以，货币乘数（money multiplier ）（也称为货币扩张系数 或货币扩张乘数）放大了中国受到的影响。 ”他谈到。位于美国华盛顿特区的战略和国际研究中心（ Center for Strateg

4、ic andInternational Studies ，简称 CSIS）的查尔斯弗雷曼（Charles Freeman ）则反驳说，第二轮量化宽松政策的主要影响是政治性的。 “它让北京对美联储的美元长期政策颇感紧张，中国政府担心，美国会长期奉行弱势美元政策（ weak dollar policy ）。”曾任职美国对中国事务贸易代表助理的弗雷曼谈到， “最近，中国对美国财政部和美联储施压，要求它们再次保证，量化宽松只是短期政策。 ”美国财政部负责经济政策的前助理部长、马里兰大学（University of Maryland ）国际经济政策教授菲利普 斯瓦格（Philip Swagel ）认为，

5、第二轮量化宽松政策的总体影响，尤其是对中国的影响，并不像人们想象的那么显著。 “中国的过度反应是毫无缘由的。 ”他谈到，“总体来说，这个政策是美联储发出的一个信号，它不能让美国发生通货紧缩，并且将有积极的表现如果美国经济未能反弹。最终，这一政策对于国内经济以及在国际社会造成的溢出效应也是相当有限的。 ”通货膨胀恶化然而，尽管该政策的影响相对较小，不过，对包括中国在内的很多经济体而言，溢出效应则是在一个敏感时期发生的。 上海复旦大学的金融学教授郑辉认为，自前两轮量化宽松政策实施以后，在全球市场流通的美元更多了，从而降低了美 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献元对其他主要货币的比价。他还谈到，因为

6、国际商品是以美元定价的，所以，从石油到白糖，所有大宗商品的价格都上涨了。举例来说，3 月，联合国粮农组织粮食价格指数 （FAO Food Price Index ）记录一揽子食品国际价格每月变动情况的指标 平均为 230 点，比 2 月的峰值下降了 2.9%，但比去年 3 月则上涨了 37%。与此同时，石油价格则触及到了每桶120 美元的高位，这是两年多来的最高价格水平，当然，中东和北非地区的动荡也是影响目前石油价格的重要因素。然而，郑辉并不是唯一强调美联储这种宽松货币政策应该为商品价格的上涨承担某些负责的人。正如日本银行（ Bank of Japan）的一份报告指出的： “从全球来看，宽松的

7、货币政策在商品价格的迅速上涨中扮演着重要的角色，这种政策既刺激了人们对商品的实际需求，同时也促使更多的投资流向了商品市场。 ”对中国来说，商品价格的变化非常重要。在担心公众对能源和食品的更高支出出现强烈反应的时候，高企的商品价格让这个依赖进口的经济体感到日子很不好过。“除了继续从全球进口这些商品以外，中国没有多少选择， ”郑辉表示，“即使原油价格和食品价格不断攀升，中国也不太可能减少在进口这些商品上的开销。”然而，马里兰大学的斯瓦格认为， “中国自己的货币政策本身就存在问题，中国通货膨胀的最大驱动因素是中国的货币政策。中国一直让人民币保持弱势，并与美元软挂钩（soft peg），从而，导致过多

8、的货币在这个经济体系中流通，并最终抬高了通货膨胀。 ” 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献这个国家的中央银行中国人民银行一直在与通货膨胀抗争。举例来说， 4 月初，它出台了提高商业银行存款准备金率的措施，以收紧信贷，同时，它还将一年期存贷款基准利率提高了 25 个基点，这是今年第二次提高基准利率， 也是自去年年初以来的第四次提高基准利率。在此期间，中国人民银行还称，将允许人民币在更大范围内兑换，而不仅限于包括美元在内的七种货币。外汇交易员认为，这一举措有助于减少美元在决定中国货币价值上的权重。推卸责任对美国而言，第二轮量化宽松政策是用以提振这个国家经济的几种政策杠杆之一。“因为美联储的职责就是

9、调节经济运行，创造就业机会以达到充分就业，所以，核心问题是，在当时，2010 年，用以加速经济复苏的可用手段都是什么呢？ ”马里兰大学公共政策学院的麦克 戴斯勒（I. M. (Mac) Destler ）教授问道。他认为，美联储已经将利率保持在很低的水平了， 进一步降低利率的空间很有限。 “当时的另一个选择是全新的经济刺激计划。然而，从政治上来看似乎并不可行。所以，另一轮量化宽松政策就是仅有的几种选择之一了。 ”但是，第二轮量化宽松政策的出台时机并不 “走运”，政策的推出恰好在 11 月于汉城举办的 G20 峰会（G20 Summit）的前几天，戴斯勒谈到。 “但是，就美国政治而言，这一时机是

10、合情合理的。美联储不想让自己看起来具有党派性，不想让自己看似在支持民主党政府。因此，在中期大选刚一结束，它就宣布将实施第二轮量化宽松政策，而这个时间刚好处在汉城峰会召开之前。 ”当全球领导人在汉城聚集一堂时，包括巴西、印度和韩国在内的几个国家，与中国一起对美国的政 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献策提出了批评。“第二轮量化宽松政策让美国在与中国关于世界经济重现平衡的争论中只能采取守势。因为中国对量化宽松政策感到不满，同时，其他国家也加入了批评美联储举措的阵营，所以对美国来说，在汉城峰会上让其他国家和自己一道在货币升值等议题上说服中国就变得更加困难了。 ”戴斯勒认为，伯南克本来是可以通过在国内

11、外说明出台第二轮量化宽松政策的原由而避免遭到批评的。 “他本可以解释清楚的是，对美联储来说，为刺激美国经济，推行第二轮量化宽松政策的举措是必要的；此外，该政策在国际社会产生的溢出效应也是可以掌控的，而美国经济更为强劲的复苏则会让全世界经济受益。”第三次会走运吗？复旦大学的田素华告诫说，美国出台第三轮量化宽松政策的巨大风险在于，美元的信用将会因此而受到挑战。 “如果全球各个国家在进行国际贸易时避开美元，那么，美元就会回流到美国，这对美国来说会是个严重的问题。 ”复旦大学的郑辉认为，如果美联储进一步推行宽松政策，那么，中国很可能不得不让人民币升值。 “第三轮量化宽松政策等同于美元的另一轮竞争性贬值

12、（competitive depreciation ）。因为人民币与美元 软挂钩，所以，人民币对其他主要货币的汇率也会降低。从而，日本和欧盟等中国的主要贸易伙伴就会深受不公平的贸易劣势之苦。从这个角度来说，第三轮量化宽松政策将会对北京加快人民币升值的步伐形成压力。 ” 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献但是斯瓦格表示，让人民币进一步升值对中国的经济有好处。 “中国应该允许人民币升值。强势的人民币可以有效降低信贷的增长， 而且能有效抑制通货膨胀。同时，即使人民币升值对出口部门有负面影响，中国也有其他选择来保持其经济强劲增长。”根据“中国金融在线 ”（Finance China ）报道，最近，中国

13、国务院发展研究中心的一位资深研究员预测，人民币升值对出口导向型企业的影响不会像很多人担心的那么显著。虽然出口产品的价格会提高，不过，人民币升值也降低了重要部件的进口成本。至于说第三轮量化宽松政策是否会刺激热钱流入中国的问题，最近的数据表明，该政策的影响可能很小。金融时报的中国投资参考（FT China Confidential ）2 月份发布的一份报告称，中国外汇管理局估计，通过资本账户流入中国的热钱，从 2009 年的 1 万亿美元，减少到了目前的 2，900 亿美元，这表明，即便在实施量化宽松政策，中国也有能力有效控制资金的流入量。或许，第一轮、第二轮以及或许会推出的第三轮量化宽松政策更会

14、导致的结果，是世界上两个最大经济体之间的口水战。 “两个国家都在为自己的问题而指责对方。”斯瓦格表示， “事实上，美国的问题并不是中国引起的，反过来，中国的问题也不是由美国造成的。 ”附注：本文摘自“宾夕法尼亚大学网站期刊”，发布日期 : 2011.04.13 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献原文：Recovery Mode: Should China Worry About the U.S.sQuantitative Easing?In a speech in February in Washington, D.C., Federal Reserve chairman BenBernank

Among the loudest critics: China.As under the first two rounds of quantitative easing (beginning in March 2009 andNovember 2010) the Fed would print money and use the funds

19、ices and an influx of hot money into their country. They expect more ofthe same if there is a QE3. Experts are divided whether such concerns are justified.Tian Suhua, an international economics professor at Shanghai Fudan University,notes that the effect of QE2 has been greater than QE1. “The first

20、round of QE onlyaffected China through the trade channel, while in the second round, the ability of U.S.banks and mortgage companies to issue credit was strengthened, so the effect on Chinawas amplified by the money multiplier,” he says.The QE2s primary effect is political, counters Charles Freeman

21、of the Center forStrategic and International Studies, a Washington, D.C.-based public policy researchcenter. “It is causing a lot of nervousness in Beijing about the long -term policy of theFed concerning the dollar, and the Chinese administration is worried that the U.S.will pursue a long-term weak

22、 dollar policy, says Freeman, a former assistant U.S.trade representative for China affairs. Recently, China stepped up pressure on theTreasury and the Federal Reserve by asking for reassurance that QE is only ashort-term exercise.”Philip Swagel, former assistant secretary for economic policy at the

23、 TreasuryDepartment in the U.S. and professor of international economic policy at University ofMaryland, agrees that the economic impact of QE2 in general, and on China inparticular, has not been as drama tic as it is often made out to be. “Chinese rhetoric isoff the mark,” he says. “QE2 is mainly a

25、, the spillover comes at a sensitive time for manyeconomies, including Chinas. Zheng Hui, finance professor at Shanghai FudanUniversity, says that since the first two rounds of quantitative easing, more U.S. dollarshave been circulating in world markets, weakening the value of the dollar against oth

26、ermajor currencies. Given that international commodities are priced in dollars, he says,everything from oil to sugar has become more expensive.In March, for example, the FAO Food Price Index - a measure of the monthlychange in the international prices of a basket of food commodities - averaged 230po

28、g the extent to whichaccommodative policies, such as the Feds, should shoulder some of the blame for therise commodity prices. As a report by the Bank of Japan notes, “Globally,accommodative monetary conditions have played an important role in the surge in 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献commodity prices, both by

29、stimulating physical demand for commodities and bydriving more investment flows into commodity markets.”For China, that matters a lot. Its import-dependent economy is feeling the pinch ofhigher commodity prices amid concerns about major public backlashes about higherfuel and food bills. “China has f

30、ew choices but to continue importing those globalcommodities,” says Zheng. “Even if crude oil prices and food prices keep soaring,China is unlikely t o reduce its expenditures on these imports.”Yet according to University of Marylands Swagel, “Chinas own monetary policyis problematic in the first pl

31、ace and the biggest driver of inflation in China is theChinese monetary policy. The main fact is that China is maintaining a weak yuan andthe soft peg to the dollar forces China to have excessive liquidity that boosts inflation.”The countrys central bank, the Peoples Bank of China (PBOC), has been t

32、ryingto combat inflation. In early April, for example, it raised the required reserve ratios ofcommercial banks and tightened credit, and it raised the benchmark one-yearborrowing and lending interest rates by 25 basis points - the second time that it raisedthe benchmark interest rate this year and

33、the fourth time since the start of last year.Around the same time, the PBOC also said it will allow the renminbi to be tradedagainst a larger range of currencies than the current seven, including the U.S. dollar,which foreign exchange traders says will help reduce the greenbacks weight indetermining

34、 the Chinese currencys value. 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献Blame GameAs for the U.S., the QE2 was one of several policy levers pulled to improve thecountrys economy. “Since the responsibility of the Federal Reserve is to regulate theeconomy, create jobs and move to full employment, the central question is, what

35、 meanswere available to accelerate the recovery in 2010?” asks I. M. (Mac) Destler, aprofessor at the University of Marylands School of Public Policy. He says the Fed wasalready keeping interest rates very low, leaving little room to lower rates further.“Another option at that time was a new stimulu

36、s bill. However, it seemed to bepolitically unlikely,” he notes. “Another round of QE was one of the few choices left.”But the timing of the QE2s unveiling was unfortunate,” coming as it did justdays before the G20 Summit in Seoul in November, says Destler. But it made sense interms of U.S. politics

37、. The Fed does not want to look like it is partisan and supports aDemocratic administration. Therefore, it announced QE2 immediately after themid-term elections, which happened to be just before the Seoul summit.” When worldleaders gathered in Seoul, several countries, including Brazil, India and So

38、uth Korea,joined China in cri ticizing the U.S.s policy. “QE2 put the U.S. on the defensive inarguing with China to rebalance the world economy, he notes. Since China wasunhappy about the QE, and other countries joined it in criticizing the Feds action, itwas harder for the U.S. to get these countri

39、es to join in pushing China on other issuesat Seoul, such as the currency appreciation.” 量化宽松政策中英文对照外文翻译文献Destler reckons that Bernanke made a mistake in not giving a serious internationaljustification of QE2 in time, hence putting himself under international criticism. Heshould have explained that

40、it was necessary for the Federal Reserve to implement QE2to stimulate the U.S. economy, that the international spillover was manageable and theworld would benefit from a stronger U.S. recovery,” he says .Third Time Lucky?Tian of Fudan University warns that the big danger of a QE3 is that it willchal

41、lenge the credibility of the U.S. dollar. “If countries around the world bypass theU.S. dollar during international trade, dollars will flow back to the U.S and that wouldbe a serious problem for the U.S.,” he says.Zheng of Fudan University notes that in the event of further easing by the Fed,China

42、will most likely have to allow the RMB to appreciate. “A third round of QEequals another round of competiti ve depreciation of the U.S. dollar,” he says. “Sincethe RMB maintains a soft peg to the dollar, the RMBs exchange rate will alsodepreciate against other major currencies. Chinas major trading

43、partners, such asJapan and the European Union, will suffer from an unfair trade disadvantage. In thissense, a third round of QE would exert additional pressure on Beijing to allow a fasterpace of the RMB appreciation.”Enabling the RMB to appreciate further than it has in recent months might begood for Chinas economy, adds Swagel. “Chi
