This article chooses the date of the RMB exchange rate against the dollar and the yen from the January 1, 2008 to May 21, 2012 as samples, describes the joint distribution of the two assets using Copula-Garch model, thus eventually works out the optimal holding ratio of the two foreign currency assets under minimal risk situations.
