The bill would direct the Treasury Secretary to tell the U.S. Executive Director at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to advocate for more transparency about China’s exchange rate policies. It also calls for stronger IMF monitoring of those policies, attention to differences from other currencies used to value Special Drawing Rights, and consideration of China’s conduct when the IMF reviews member voting shares. The requirement would end after a report finds China meets specified standards, or seven years after enactment, whichever comes first.
The bill sets instructions for U.S. representation at the IMF. It does not describe direct changes to services or requirements for individuals.
