CNY: China pursues a managed floating exchange rate regime based on market supply and demand with reference to a basket of currencies, adopted in the July 2005 reform that ended the fixed peg to the US dollar. The China Foreign Exchange Trade System, authorized by the People's Bank of China, publishes a central parity rate of the renminbi against the US dollar each business day, around which onshore trading is managed. KES: Kenya has operated a floating exchange rate regime since 1993, replacing a crawling peg introduced in 1983 and a fixed rate that ran from 1966 to 1982. The Central Bank of Kenya states that it does not set the exchange rate — it is market-determined by supply and demand among licensed commercial banks and forex bureaus — though the Bank may intervene to stabilise the market during episodes of excess volatility.
