New Taiwan dollar — managed currency at the heart of the global semiconductor supply chain.
The New Taiwan dollar (TWD) is the official currency of Taiwan. It is closely managed by the Central Bank of the Republic of China (CBC) and serves as a key proxy for the global semiconductor cycle through Taiwan's central role in chip manufacturing.

Taiwan macro brief
The highest-signal pages for Taiwan include Central Bank Policy Rate, Inflation Rate (CPI/HICP), Core Inflation, Producer Price Index (PPI), with each page linking back to the source metadata, release history, and API endpoint.
The CBC sets the discount rate at four scheduled meetings per year and targets broad money growth alongside inflation. Taiwan operates a managed-float regime with active CBC intervention to limit FX volatility.
For TWD research, combine the country-level release map with the USD/TWD dashboard, release calendar, and API reference so macro events, source metadata, and FX context stay connected.
The pages below are organized by indicator rather than API route. That keeps the public website useful for research while still preserving the versioned API contract for developers.
What to watch
- CBC quarterly policy decision and meeting summary.
- Taiwan CPI release.
- Monthly export orders and electronics export data.
- USD/TWD spot and CBC intervention rhetoric.
- Quarterly GDP advance estimates.

TWD questions traders ask
Currency-specific context that helps interpret the country data before moving into endpoints or dashboards.
Why is the New Taiwan dollar important to global markets?
Taiwan produces a dominant share of the world's leading-edge semiconductors. Its export data, FX rate, and corporate earnings are watched as real-time indicators of global tech demand and AI capex cycles.
How freely traded is TWD?
Onshore TWD trading is restricted to local banks and 'real demand' transactions. Offshore non-deliverable forwards (NDFs) provide a more freely traded benchmark for foreign investors.
How often does the CBC meet?
The CBC's Board of Directors holds four scheduled monetary-policy meetings per year, generally in March, June, September, and December.
