  • Annual Report 2020 Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan)
    Annual Report 2020 Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) Taipei, Taiwan Republic of China Foreword Chin-Long Yang, Governor Looking back on 2020, it started with an outbreak of the coronavirus COVID-19 that quickly spread out and wreaked havoc on the global economy and world trade. Hampered by the resulting demand weakness both at home and abroad, Taiwan's economic growth slowed to 0.35% in the second quarter, the lowest since the second quarter of 2016. However, the pace picked up further and further in the latter half of the year amid economic reopening overseas and the introduction of consumption stimulus policies domestically. The annual growth rate of GDP reached 5.09% in the fourth quarter, the highest since the second quarter of 2011. For the year as a whole, the economy expanded by 3.11%, also higher than the past two years. Similarly, domestic inflation was affected by the pandemic as softer international demand for raw materials dragged down energy prices and hospitality services (such as travel and hotels) launched promotional price cuts. The annual growth rate of CPI dropped to -0.23%, the lowest since 2016, while that of the core CPI (excluding fruit, vegetables, and energy) fell to 0.35%, a record low unseen for more than a decade. Faced with the unusual challenges posed by pandemic-induced impacts on the economy and the labor market, the Bank reduced the policy rates by 25 basis points and rolled out a special accommodation facility worth NT$200 billion to help SMEs obtain funding in March, followed by an expansion of the facility to NT$300 billion in September.

An essential part of this financial overhaul has been the reform of the state-owned banks (SOBs). It was believed that privatisation and deregulation of the SOBs could effectively enhance the efficiency of Taiwan’s financial sector. After almost two decades, however, the reform is still not complete. Given its importance, the question arises: why is it taking so long? This article argues that the state has been unable to implement its planned reform policies as its ability to carry out the SOB reform has been significantly constrained by the newly rising political forces resulting from Taiwan’s democratisation.

Received: 23 December 2012; in revised form: 20 January 2013 / Accepted: 31 January 2013 / Published: 13 February 2013 Abstract: High-technology industries provide opportunities for economic growth, but also raise concerns because of their energy-demanding nature. This paper provides an integrated evaluation of both economic benefits and energy efficiency of high-technology industries based on the real data from one of the globally recognized high-technology industrial clusters, the national science parks in Taiwan. A nation-wide industrial Input-Output Analysis is conducted to demonstrate the positive effects of science parks on national economic developments and industrial upgrades. The concept of energy intensity and an energy-efficient economy index are applied to an integrated assessment of the relationship between economic growth and energy consumption. The proposed case study suggests that economic and energy efficiency objectives can be simultaneously achieved by the development of high-technology industries, while three energy policy implications are considered.
