SAFE: Europe is still key investment market
Europe would remain one of the major markets for China s more than $2.4 trillion foreign exchange reserves despite the continent's sovereign debt woes, the country s foreign exchange regulator said on Tuesday.
Europe was, is, and will be one of the major investment markets for China s foreign exchange reserves, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) said in a statement.
The regulator remained confident that Europe will overcome its current financial difficulties, the statement said. We support the series of financial stability measures taken by the European Union and the International Monetary Fund, it said.
Europe is part of SAFE's investment portfolio because it adopts a diversified investment strategy, which ensures stable returns.
China has kept its foreign exchange reserve assets generally safe during the global financial crisis. We have had quite good returns in 2008 and 2009, when the crisis was hitting (the global economy) the hardest, the statement said.
Book gains from rising asset prices have far outweighed valuation losses caused by the appreciation of the yuan, the agency said.
None of China s foreign exchange reserves were invested in high-risk assets such as the US subprime mortgage-backed bonds, which helped ensure the safety of its investment security, the SAFE said.
