Abstract: The impact of RMB offshore market development on China’s monetary policy operation has drawn academic interest and policy attention in the past years. This article summarizes the international literature on domestic monetary policy implications of offshore markets. We reviewed theoretical and empirical studies published over the past 50 years, with a focus on the effects of Eurodollar market development on U.S. monetary policy. The main conclusions from this literature review include: the expansion of the offshore market (measured by deposits) did not seem to directly influence domestic money supply in a significant way, and a possible explanation is that the money multiplier in the Eurodollar market is low; although the offshore market may affect the domestic money velocity and money supply on the theoretical level, empirical results suggest that these influences are limited an manageable.
