The exchange rate target area system includes: the size of the target area, the frequency of changes in the target area, the degree of distribution of the target area, and maintaining the promise of the exchange rate in the target area.The implementation of the exchange rate target area can increase the importance of exchange rate policies, promote the coordination of economic policies of major industrial countries, and play a correct guidance role in market expectations. It can also adjust the amplitude of the target area to reflect the changes in the actual equilibrium exchange rate and avoid large -scale international international internationalForex speculation.However, it is difficult to accurately reflect the balanced exchange rate, and it is difficult to be consistent with the inflation of the two countries and the difference between the trade revenue and expenditure; the target area is generally wide, frequent changes, and it is difficult to stabilize the exchange rate and guide the market expectations;Monetary policies in various countries must maintain exchange rates, which will affect the effect of monetary policy on the domestic economy, and it is difficult to make countries achieve consistency through negotiation.
