6 Monetary Policy Implementation 6

7 What is Monetary Policy? Monetary Policy is the process by which a central bank controls the supply of money in the economy by exercising its control over interest rates in order to maintain price stability and achieve high economic growth. - Contractionary Monetary Policy: slows the rate of growth in the money supply or outright decreases the money supply in order to control inflation. - Expansionary Monetary Policy: increases the rate of growth in money supply to spur growth and reduce unemployment. 7

8 What is Monetary Policy? Conventional vs. Unconventional monetary policy - Conventional MP The policies that mainly act by setting a target for the overnight interest rate in the interbank market and adjusting the supply of central bank money to that target through Open market operation, Reserve requirement, and Standing facility (lending and deposit). - Unconventional MP The policies that directly target the cost and availability of external finance to banks, households and non-financial companies. These sources of finance can be in the form of central bank liquidity, loans, fixed income securities or equity by using Direct Quantitative Easing, Direct Credit Easing and Indirect Quantitative Easing/Credit Easing. In the US, the Fed loaded its balance sheet with trillions of dollars in Treasury notes and mortgage-backed securities between 2008 and The Bank of England, the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan have pursued similar policies. 8

9 What is Monetary Policy? Monetary Policy Formulation - The Monetary Policy Committee, chaired by the Governor, a high-level policy committee at the, was established to assess the ongoing economic and financial developments of the country and to make decisions on monetary policy, with the objective of maintaining price stability. - Monetary Policy Sub Committee, chaired by Director General of Central Banking, was established to implement monetary policy determined by Monetary Policy Committee. - Monetary Policy Secretariat: composes of economists, researchers and experts, they monitor and assess macroeconomics and financial sector s context, conduct forecasting and prepare a monetary policy report for MPC. 9

10 What is Monetary Policy? Law on the Organization and Conduct of the NBC - Article 3: The principle mission of the Central Bank is to determine and direct the monetary policy aimed at maintaining price stability in order to facilitate economic development within the framework of the Kingdom s economic and financial policy. 10

11 What is Monetary Policy? In order to do so, the law allows the Central Bank to have following functions and duties: To determine monetary policy objectives, in consultation with the Royal Government and consideration of the framework of the economic and financial policy of the Kingdom To formulate, implement and monitor monetary and exchange policies aimed at the determined objectives To participate in the formulation and supervision of the money and financial markets To set the interest rate 11

12 Monetary Policy Instruments What are the monetary policy instruments at NBC s disposal? Because of high dollarization and under developed financial markets, the available instruments are limited: Exchange Rate Policy Reserve Requirement Rate 12

13 Monetary Policy Instruments Exchange rate policy The NBC adopted the stabilized exchange rate regime. What does it mean? We leave the exchange rate floating BUT intervene when the situation warrants. 13

14 Monetary Policy Instruments In the context of high dollarization, the NBC intervenes the market to supply local currency based on the market demand to stabilize the exchange rate. Trillion Riel 4 200% 3 150% 100% 2 50% 1 0% % Sell KHR Growth (RHS) 14

15 Exchange Rate Movements Exchange Rate (monthly average midpoint market rate, H1) 4,300 4,200 4,100 4,000 3,900 3,800 3,700 3,600 3,500 4,037 NBC implements exchange rate based monetary policy Exchange rate was driven by seasonal factors of tax payment and agricultural purchase NBC intervenes in the foreign exchange market under the managed float exchange rate regime by allowing the fluctuation of 2% and +2% Exchange rate has been stable for the last two decades, with an average rate of 4,000 riel per US dollar 15

16 Monetary Policy Instruments The impacts of exchange rate s movement - Depreciation of KHR could penalize the KHR holders, create inflationary pressure, increase interest rate of KHR loans - Appreciation of KHR could penalize the workers whose incomes are in USD such as garment workers The NBC has strived to stabilize the exchange rate to enhance the public confidence in Riels, preserve the purchasing power especially for poor people and limit the exchange rate risks. 16

17 Monetary Policy Instruments NBC monitors very closely the movement of the exchange rate. NBC would decide to let it vary or to intervene in the foreign exchange market based on the economic fundamentals and monetary policy s objectives by taking into consideration the impacts of exchange rate s movement. The law provides NBC total independence in conducting monetary policy/the exchange rate policy to achieve the monetary policy objective. NBC has no obligation to intervene at all time in the market, in particular when the foreign exchange market could provide enough liquidity to the demand and/or the increase in demand is temporary or for speculative purpose. 17

18 % Price Development Price Development CPI MoM CPI YoY Cambodia had contained inflation below 5 percent on average a remarkable feat given that high inflation typically accompanies high economic growth. 18

22 Interbank Market Development NCD was launched in late 2013 to create a market based instrument for the interbank market transaction. The demand for NCD has significantly increased, particularly in the last 2 years.

24 Interbank Market Development Future Monetary Policy tool: Marginal Lending Facility (MLF) - Conceptual Basis of Marginal Lending Facility Facility through which central bank lends to banks From perspective of counterparty also referred to as borrowing facility Liquidity management instrument to meet ad hoc unexpected liquidity need (which remains uncovered despite OMOs and interbank market). Provides a regular access to central bank credit at predetermined conditions 24

25 Foreign Exchange Market Development Proportion of KHR amounts that Banks and Money Changers bought from NBC 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% 41% 57% 48% 44% 68% 72% 70% 59% 43% 52% 56% 32% 28% 30% 2014S1 2014S2 2015S1 2015S2 2016S1 2016S2 2017S1 Banks Money Changers To develop a wholesale foreign exchange market in which banks play as a market maker and To enhance the regulations on the foreign exchange market. 25

26 Promotion of the Use of Riels The Government and the NBC have implemented policies to promote Riels on market-driven and gradual basis. - The National policies to promote Riels have been reviewed by Economic and Financial Policy Committee before submitting to the Head of the Government. - These policies would continue to encourage the use of Riels in the economy. - Promotion of Riels is not solely NBC s tasks, but all agents in all sectors: public institutions, corporates, financial institutions, NGOs, individuals etc. take part in this process. - Banks and Financial Institutions should participate actively in this policy implementation. 26

27 Promotion of the Use of Riels Why promotion of the use of Riels is important, in particular to banks and financial institutions? Could obtain sustainable source of funds Lower costs of funding Reduce liquidity risks Mitigate exchange rate risks and Enhance the role of lender of last resort of the NBC to help banks and financial institutions in case of urgent liquidity need. 27

45 Conclusion Economic growth continued to be high in 2016 in Cambodia, at 7% close to the 7.2% trend of the previous five years, Credit growth declined substantially in 2016, globally at 18.5% on a yearly basis, largely below the 29 % average over the previous five years and even the 24.2% in The population of the banking industry still increased in 2016, although the population is already quite large. There will be time for more consolidation. The solvency ratio in banks remains above 20% on average, but some large and medium banks have an individual ratio much closer to the minimum threshold of 15%. Solvency ratios in MDIs are much lower, around 18% on average, and their comparative situation is even weaker as their Tier1 capital is only % of their total capital on average, compared to % in commercial banks (June 2016). 45
