Foreign Exchange Rates & Foreign Exchange Management Policy Revisions

yyyy/mm/dd 2001/10/23 Surrenders in Canadian dollars and Great Britain Pounds by all

Authorised Dealers and Cambios to the Bank of Jamaica will be purchased at the previous day's published 10-day moving average selling rate of the respective currency.

The rate applicable to surrenders in United States dollars remains unchanged at the previous day's weighted average selling rate.

2001/11/05 The Bank of Jamaica (BOJ) has implemented the following surrender arrangements with authorized dealers and cambios:

1. Authorized dealers and cambios are required to surrender to the BOJ a minimum of five percent (5%) but may surrender a maximum of ten percent (10%) of their daily gross foreign exchange purchases from commercial clients (this excludes purchases from authorized dealers, cambios or the BOJ).

2. Surrenders can be made in either of the three major currencies - United States Dollar (USD), Canadian Dollar (CAD), and Great Britain Pound (GBP). Surrenders for CAD and GBP purchases may be made in USD and must be converted at cross currency rates derived from the respective weighted average buying rates in the local market on the day of purchase.

3. The surrender rates for the three currencies will be the weighted average selling rate of the previous business day.

4. The frequency of surrenders to the BOJ may be done utilizing one of the following methods:

Daily surrenders, whereby authorized dealers and cambios deliver

funds to the BOJ on the business day immediately following the day of purchase. The surrender rate will be the previous business day's weighted average selling rate.

or

Weekly surrenders, whereby authorized dealers and cambios deliver funds to the BOJ on every Wednesday. The surrender will be calculated on the total gross commercial purchases for the previous Wednesday to Tuesday. The surrender rate will be the weighted average selling rate on the day of surrender (rate of the previous business day). If a public holiday falls on a Wednesday, then surrenders should be made on the next business day.

2009/02/03 The Bank of Jamaica established the Foreign Exchange Surrender Facility for public sector entities (PSE Facility). The aim of the facility is to centralize foreign currency demand of the public sector, especially Port Authority of Jamaica (PAJ), National Water Commission (NWC) and Petrojam. Under this facility Commercial Banks agreed to surrender fifteen percent (15%) of foreign currency purchases daily. The pre-existing requirement where Authorized Dealers and Cambios surrender within range of five percent (5%) to ten percent (10%) of their gross foreign currency purchases from commercial clients remains in effect. Therefore commercial banks are to surrender, in total between twenty percent (20%) to twenty-five percent (25%) of foreign currency purchases daily.

Other Policy Developments

yyyy/mm/dd

2003/01/31 International Trust and Merchant Bank Limited terminated its operations During January 2003 and surrendered its deposit taking licence on January 31 2003.

2003/07/09 First Caribbean International Trust and Merchant Bank Limited (FCITMB) surrendered its deposit-taking licence previously issued under the Protection of Depositors Act, and has been renamed First Caribbean International Securities Limited.

2003/01/10 The Bank of Jamaica instituted a “Special Deposit” requirement for Commercial Banks and institutions licensed under the Financial Institutions Act. Each institution will be required to place cash deposits with the Central Bank equivalent to 5% of its Jamaican dollar deposit liabilities.

This measure is instituted in a context of increased speculation and heightened instability in the foreign exchange market which has been facilitated by the high levels of Jamaica dollar liquidity in the system.

The Central Bank intends to retain this measure until normality is restored in the foreign exchange system.

2003/02/10 The Bank of Jamaica introduced a special five-month open market instrument which will earn interest at 30% per annum. The interest on all other open market instruments remained unchanged.

This instrument was introduced in a context of significant Jamaica dollar liquidity and protracted instability in the foreign exchange market. It was intended as a temporary measure to be removed as soon as the corrective fiscal action being developed by the government became effective.

2003/02/14 The Bank of Jamaica withdrew the special five-month open market instrument which was introduced on 10 February, 2003.

The decision to remove this instrument came against the background of tight Jamaica dollar liquidity and the appreciation in the exchange rate over the preceding four days. The removal also came following representations made to the Bank of Jamaica by financial institutions and understandings reached with respect to the development of foreign exchange market protocols.

2005/05/27 The Bank of Jamaica ceased using reverse repurchase agreements to conduct open market operations.

Appendix 3 BALANCE OF PAYMENTS METHODOLOGY

The presentation format of Jamaica's Balance of Payments (BOP) has been revised to conform with the international standard as embodied in the 5th edition of the BOP manual published by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The revisions have been made largely to harmonize the Balance of Payments statistics with the internationally accepted System of National Accounts (SNA) and the IMF's international statistical system.

Major Categories of the Balance of Payments

The new presentation of the Balance of Payments still consists of two main accounts. These are the Current Account and the Capital and Financial Account.

A. CURRENT ACCOUNT

The current account is further sub-divided into the Goods and Services, Income and Current transfers sub-accounts.

1. The Goods and Service Sub-account covers merchandise trade, travel, transportation and other services.

a. Merchandise Trade: This encompasses general merchandise, free zone imports and exports and goods procured in ports by international carriers.

b. Travel: Travel covers the goods and services acquired for personal consumption from an economy by persons staying for less than one year in the economy of which he/she is not a resident. This item includes travel for leisure, business, medical and educational purposes. Expenditure by seasonal workers are also included.

c. Transportation: This covers those services that involve the carriage of passengers, movement of goods (freight), charter of carriers with crew and other supporting ser- vices.

d. Other Services: Included in this group are services relating to communication, con- struction, insurance, finance, computer and information, personal, cultural and recre- ational activities, government and royalties and licenses fees.

2. The Income sub-account encompasses the compensation of employees and investment income such as profits, reinvested earnings, interest, dividends and other income.

3. The Current Transfers sub-account covers transactions such as taxes on income, workers' remittances, premiums and claims on non-life insurance.

Page 179: July 2011 - December 2011 - Bank of JamaicaInternational Investment Position (IIP) 99 Balance of Payments 100 CARICOM Countries’ Foreign Reserves 101 ... (at End-December 2011) 78

~ 157 ~

B. THE CAPITAL AND FINANCIAL ACCOUNT has two major components, the Capital Account and the Financial Account.

1. The Capital Account covers (a) capital transfers and (b) the acquisition/disposal of non-produced, non-financial assets.

a. Capital transfers include the transfer (as gift, grant or bequest) of ownership of fixed assets, and funds linked to disposal/acquisition of fixed assets and the cancellation of debt by creditor.

b. Acquisition/disposal of non-produced, non-financial assets involves intangibles such as patents, leases and the purchases/sales of land by foreign embassies.

2. The Financial Account covers (a) direct investment (b) portfolio investment (c) other investments (trade credits, loans, currencies and deposits) and (d) official reserves.

While the composition of the accounts may have changed in some instances, the new presentation still facilitates identification of performance of familiar categories including merchandise trade, services, the current account, public and private capital flows and changes in official reserves.

Table 33a - Corporate Securities: New Issues

Compiled from reports submitted to the Bank of Jamaica by the Jamaica Stock Exchange. New Issues are shares put on the market for public subscription. Where issues were oversubscribed, the larger applications were scaled down to enable allotment in full to the smaller applications. Issues not fully subscribed were taken up by underwriters.

Tables 33b-33c - Stock Exchange Index and Activities

Compiled from monthly trading data submitted by the Jamaica Stock Exchange.

As of June 1, 2000, the Jamaica Stock Exchange began the dissemination of its three-market capitalization indices: the JSE Index, the JSE All Jamaican Composite and the JSE Select. The JSE Index (base June 30, 1969 = 100) is an index of all the equities traded on the Stock Exchange. The index is weighted by the market capitalization of each equity. The JSE Composite Index (base May 1, 2000 = 31931) is an index of All Equities of Jamaican Companies traded on the Stock Exchange. The JSE Select (base June 1, 2000 = 1000) is an index of the fifteen (15) most liquid stocks trading on the exchange based on times traded and trade volume. The composition of this index is revised on an annual basis.

Calculation of Jamaica Stock Exchange (JSE) Market Index

The JSE uses the following formulae to compute its market indices: · Current Index = Sum (Issued Volume X Current Last Sale Price) ÷ Index Base

· Index Change = Sum [(Issued Volume ÷ Last Sale (Current - Previous)] ÷ Index Base

Page 192: July 2011 - December 2011 - Bank of JamaicaInternational Investment Position (IIP) 99 Balance of Payments 100 CARICOM Countries’ Foreign Reserves 101 ... (at End-December 2011) 78

~ 169 ~

Alternatively,

· Index Change = Current Market Index - Previous Market Index.

The Index Base is adjusted whenever: · The issued volume of a listed company changes as a result of the distribution of additional shares

from Rights Issues and/or New Issues;

· The market capitalization increases as a result of the listing of a new company;

· The market capitalization declines, as a consequence of the de-listing of a (listed) company.

N.B. Observe that bonus issues and stock splits do not impact market capitalization since both the issued volume and the quoted market price of the particular security would have been adjusted to reflect the split or bonus. As a result, the Base Divisor remains unchanged.

PRICES & PRODUCTION

Tables 50 – Inflation Rates

Inflation Rates are calculated and published each month by the Statistical Institute of Jamaica (STATIN). Inflation is measured through the use of the Consumer Price Index, which captures the rate of price change for goods and services consumed in Jamaica

51 - 52d - Consumer Price Indices (Jan. 1988 = 100)

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is compiled and published each month by the Statistical Institute of Jamaica (STATIN). It is based on a basket of goods and services containing 480 items. The current series which has a base period of December 2006 reflect data captured in a Household Expenditure Survey conducted from June 2004 to March 2005. The survey covered lower and middle income households with median expenditure of $309,000 in 2004/5, representing 85 per cent of all households.

The geographic regions covered by the CPI series are:· Greater Kingston Metropolitan Area (GKMA): Kingston, Urban St. Andrew, Portmore, Spanish

Town and Bull Bay; · Other Urban Centres: the parish capitals and 32 other urban centres (main towns) outside of

GKMA; and · Rural Areas: all the remaining areas not identified as being part of GKMA and Other Urban

Centres.

All commodities in the household expenditure survey are divided into twelve (12) major Expenditure Divisions that are based on the Classification of Individual Consumption According to Purpose (COICOP) - a system developed by the United Nations. The 12 broad Expenditure Divisions are:

· Food and Non-Alcoholic Beverages; · Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco; · Clothing and Footwear; · Housing, Water, Electricity, Gas and Other Fuels; · Furnishings, Household Equipment and Routine Household Maintenance; · Health; · Transport; · Communication; · Recreation and Culture; · Education; - Restaurants and Hotels; and - Miscellaneous Goods and Services.

The Divisions comprise Groups of related items. These Groups are further broken down into Classes.

The CPI for each month is computed using a weighted Laspeyres Index methodology.
