Indicators of consumer price index (CPI), gross loans of financial institutions (GL), cash in circulation (M0), narrow money (M1), money & quasi money (M2), foreign exchange reserves (FER), exchange rate (ER), nationwide interbank offered 120-day rate (R) and gross domestic product (GDP) are selected and virtual variable is introduced to measure the impact of financial crisis. The dynamic relationship between China’s inflation level and relevant macroeconomic variables are empirically researched.
