The spillover effect of international monetary policy on China's financial market

This study analyzes the impact of global financial integration and monetary policies from the United States, European Union and Japan on China's financial markets post-pandemic. Using TVP-FAVAR (Time-Varying Parameter Factor Augmented Vector Autoregression) and TVP-VAR-DY (Time-Varying Parameter Vector Autoregression DY) models, a Chinese financial market stress index was developed, showing that developed nations' monetary policies influence China's financial stress. The impact varies based on the economy's size and policy effectiveness. The spillovers occur mainly through accelerated short-term capital flows and foreign exchange reserve fluctuations. These effects have evolved over two decades, particularly noticeable during economic crises and the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the need for emerging economies, like China, to protect against international financial spillovers.
