Treasury Releases Report on Macroeconomic and Foreign Exchange Policies of Maj
or Trading Partners of the United States


April 16, 2021
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of the Treasury today delivered to Congress
the semiannual Report on Macroeconomic and Foreign Exchange Policies of Major
Trading Partners of the United States. In this Report, Treasury reviewed and a
ssessed the policies of 20 major U.S. trading partners during the four quarter
s through December 2020.

The Report concluded that both Vietnam and Switzerland continue to meet all th
ree criteria under the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 (t
he 2015 Act) during the period under review. Additionally, the report finds t
hat Taiwan met all three of the 2015 Act criteria for the period under review.
Treasury has conducted enhanced analysis of Vietnam, Switzerland, and Taiwan
’s macroeconomic and foreign exchange policies, as reflected in the Report.
Treasury will continue its enhanced engagement with Vietnam and Switzerland, a
nd Treasury will commence enhanced engagement with Taiwan. This engagement in
cludes urging the development of a plan with specific actions to address the u
nderlying causes of currency undervaluation and external imbalances.

Under the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 (the 1988 Act), Treasu
ry has determined that there is insufficient evidence to make a finding that V
ietnam, Switzerland, or Taiwan manipulates its exchange rate for either of the
purposes referenced in the 1988 Act. Nevertheless, consistent with the 1988
Act, Treasury considers that its continued enhanced engagements with Switzerla
nd and Vietnam, as well as a more thorough assessment of developments in the g
lobal economy as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, will enable Treasury to be
tter determine whether either of these economies intervened in currency market
s in 2020 to prevent effective balance of payments adjustment or gain an unfai
r competitive advantage in trade. For Taiwan, Treasury will initiate enhanced
engagement in accordance with the 2015 Act and expects that engagement will h
elp Treasury to make the determination required under the 1988 Act for the per
iod of review.

No other major U.S. trading partner met the relevant 1988 or 2015 legislative
criteria for currency manipulation or enhanced analysis during the review peri
od. Treasury urged China to improve transparency regarding its foreign exchan
ge intervention activities, the policy objectives of its exchange rate managem
ent regime, the relationship between the central bank and foreign exchange act
ivities of the state-owned banks, and its activities in the offshore RMB marke
t.

“Treasury is working tirelessly to address efforts by foreign economies to ar
tificially manipulate their currency values that put American workers at an un
fair disadvantage,” Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen said today.

Treasury found that eleven economies warrant placement on Treasury’s “Monito
ring List” of major trading partners that merit close attention to their curr
ency practices: China, Japan, Korea, Germany, Ireland, Italy, India, Malaysia,
Singapore, Thailand, and Mexico. All except Ireland and Mexico were included
in the December 2020 Report.

Today’s Report is submitted to Congress pursuant to the Omnibus Trade and Com
petitiveness Act of 1988, 22 U.S.C. ? 5305, and Section 701 of the Trade Facil
itation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015, 19 U.S.C. ? 4421.
