  • Cross-border financing activities in China have increased significantly in recent years, and the inflow of capital may lead to accumulated financial risks. To mitigate financial risks and promote the opening of financial markets, macroprudential management policies for cross-border financing have been implemented since 2016. This paper examines the effectiveness of macroprudential management policies in opening financial markets and managing foreign financial risks. We employ a time-varying parameter vector autoregressive (TVP-VAR) model to quantitatively analyze changes in the spillover effects between Chinese bond market and foreign bond markets under different implementation stages of cross-border financing macroprudential policies. Our analysis reveals that the implementation of macroprudential management of cross-border financing has increased the total spillover effect between different bond markets, as well as the spillover effect from other bond indices to the Chinese RMB Bond Index and the spillover effect from other indices to the Chinese USD index. Moreover, our findings indicate that macroprudential management has reduced the total volatility spillover effect and the volatility spillover effect from other indices to the Chinese RMB Bond Index. These results highlight the importance of preventing external risk transmission when China’s financial market is opening to the world.
    The TVP-VAR method is used to study the influence of macroprudential management on the bond market under different periods.

    • We employ a TVP-VAR model to analyze quantitatively changes in the spillover effects between Chinese bond market and foreign bond markets under different implementation stages of cross-border financing macroprudential management.
    • We examine the impact of macro-prudential management of cross-border financing on the risk of the RMB bond market and explores the changes in bond market risk in the context of the gradual opening of the financial market, and our study provides a crucial supplement to the role of macroprudential management in the transmission of bond market risk.
    • The macroprudential management has increased the total spillover effect among different bond markets, the spillover effect from other bond markets to Chinese RMB bond market, and the spillover effect from other bond markets to Chinese USD bond market.
    • The macroprudential management has reduced the total volatility spillover effect and the volatility spillover effect from other bond markets to Chinese RMB bond market.

    Figure  1.  Total spillover and directional spillover. The total spillover effect equals 1– (Σ the spillover effect from A to A), where A represents any bond market. The spillover effect from others to CH means that the Chinese RMB bond market received spillover effects from other bond markets. The spillover effect from CH to others means that the Chinese RMB bond market imposes a spillover effect on other bond markets. The spillover effect of CHUSD is the same as that of CH.

    A1.  RMB exchange rate in 2017.

    Figure  2.  Net pairwise spillover. Note: Taking the first picture as an example, a positive net paired spillover effect means that the spillover effect from the Chinese USD Bond Index to the FTSE Russel US Bond Index is greater than the spillover effect from the FTSE Russel US Bond Index to the Chinese USD Bond Index.

    Figure  3.  Total and directional volatility spillover.

    Figure  4.  Net pairwise volatility spillover. Taking the first figure as an example, a positive net pairwise spillover effect means that the spillover effect from Chinese RMB Bond Index volatility to US Bond Index volatility is greater than the spillover effect from US Bond Index volatility to Chinese RMB Bond Index volatility; net pairwise spillovers.
