Trade Liberalization.” Man-Ching Stella Chan, WEA 8th Biennial Pacific Rim Conference, Kyoto, Japan, March 2009.
Work in Progress: “Real Exchange Rate Anomalies in a Fixed Exchange Rate System: Sterilization by the People and
Trade Liberalization” Abstract: When a fixed exchange rate country is faced with a sudden increase in foreign exchange inflows, the economy would normally experience a rising domestic price level and real exchange rate appreciation. However, between 1998 and 2006, China underwent a period of surging influx of foreign exchange and vast reserves accumulation with little inflation or changes in the real exchange rate. Instead of sterilization by the central bank, I argue that it was largely due to “sterilization by the people”—the public voluntarily increasing their holdings of monetary balances because of a rise in income or change in preferences—hence alleviating the inflationary pressure on the economy. In addition, the easing of import
3
restrictions also helped offset some of the extra foreign exchange coming into China. An open economy model that highlights the role of the monetary approach is used to demonstrate how increased money demand and trade liberalization can mitigate the impact of the inflows on the domestic price level and the real exchange rate. I identify similar experiences in other emerging economies which, while keeping their nominal exchange rates fixed or within a narrow band, have undergone large inflows of foreign exchange without significant appreciation in their real exchange rates. “The Monetary Approach to Import Demand” Abstract: This paper empirically examines the behavior of aggregate import demand functions for a number of emerging economies under fixed exchange rate regimes. In addition to employing relative prices and real income as explanatory variables, specific emphasis is placed on the impact of excess supply of monetary balances on import demand in the form of a monetary-approach type of argument. The response of aggregate imports to large inflows of foreign exchange is also investigated.

INSTRUCTIONAL EXPERIENCE FOR MOST RECENT CALENDAR YEAR
Courses Taught:
ECON 221 Business Statistics
Other:
Supplemented the ECON 221 course material by requiring the reading of the book How
to Lie with Statistics so that the students could better learn to recognize and defend
themselves from the misuse of statistics by unscrupulous individuals and organizations.
Required every student in ECON 221 to submit a statistic which had recently been
published in a magazine, newspaper, book, or on the Internet. This statistic had to be
properly referenced and then analyzed as to the appropriateness of the sample size, the
method of data collection, and the validity of the statistic‟s interpretation and use.
Developed and implemented a semester-long “scavenger hunt” for the ECON 221
students to conduct in order to find statisticians who are famous for seemingly non-
statistical accomplishments (e.g. Alexander Graham Bell was a member of the American
Statistical Association). The purpose of this project was to show that statistical
reasoning and the ability to do statistical analyses are valuable in a variety of settings and
fields of endeavor.
