Foreign exchange income mainly comes from two factors: foreign trade export income and foreign investment; Foreign exchange expenditure correspondingly comes from foreign trade import expenditure and foreign investment.
As far as Japan is concerned, its foreign trade export is far greater than its foreign trade import, which is called trade surplus. The huge trade surplus has brought a lot of foreign exchange to Japan. (In view of the PS content of the landlord, the data will not be copied and pasted. Hehe)
In terms of investment, Japan is a typical safe-haven investment market, or to be precise, Japan has become a typical safe-haven investment market since the 1990s. This has led to a large number of international capital pouring into Japan slowly and firmly, and this process has been obviously accelerated under the influence of the financial crisis in recent years. (Data omitted)
As Japan is a net foreign exchange inflow country in both trade and investment, it is not surprising that Japan has a large amount of foreign exchange reserves.
By the way, there are three questions:
First, China's foreign exchange reserves can surpass Japan to become the largest country in the world. First, China's foreign trade has always maintained a surplus; Second, after the appreciation of RMB, the influx of international hot money is obvious.
2. The size of a country's foreign exchange reserves has nothing to do with whether it is a developed country or not, but mainly depends on the country's economic structure and the trade and capital flows caused by it. For example, oil exporting countries will have a lot of foreign exchange reserves. And the United States? Foreign exchange reserves are bound to be low.
Three: foreign exchange reserves have advantages and disadvantages, so I won't say much about it.
Pure handwriting, I hope the landlord understands this problem.
