What the record says
Availability. No current finding is published for CNY fix gap because the source status is stale.
This report is scoped to cny-fix-gap. It does not merge unlike instruments or infer a cause from co-movement.
How it was measured
two prices for one currency: the state's 09:15 Beijing fix vs an independent same-day market reference (ECB concertation, 14:15 CET = 20:15 Beijing). gap_pct > 0 means the market prices the yuan weaker than the fix; the band is ±2%, so gap_pct is read against that scale. Computed only on days a fix exists — ECB prints CNY on Chinese holidays and a gap against an unset fix would be fiction. Onshore only: no licence-clean keyless CNH source exists (the TMA fixing is licensed), stated rather than worked around. cross_check_diff is the ECB-vs-BoC derivation disagreement, published so a silent break in either source is visible; it is null on rounds where the Bank of Canada leg did not answer. Economic backdrop, not censorship — deliberately off the alarm board
What this cannot establish
- Current finding withheld: freshness deadline has passed
- The comparison is onshore and same-day but not simultaneous; it is economic context, not direct evidence of censorship.
