China's top foreign-exchange regulator has suggested imposing a so-called Tobin tax to curb excessive speculation in the yuan, the latest sign that Beijing wants to stabilise the currency. Yi Gang, a deputy governor of the central bank and chief of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, said in an article published by China Finance magazine that Beijing would strengthen regulation of currency trades and money flows amid its efforts have the yuan included in special drawing rights (SDR), the International Monetary Fund's basket of reserve currencies. Yi suggested punitive measures such as a Tobin tax, a small levy on currency transactions to deter currency speculators, to stem hot money flows.
