The event has now concluded. Thanks for your attendance.

Responding to the demand from Central Bankers, Central Banking Publications hosted another of its exclusive meetings dedicated to the reserve managers with an active interest in the issues, implications and opportunities associated with internationalisation of the renminbi.

______________________________

Since the International Monetary Fund added the renminbi to its Special Drawing Right basket, central bank reserves held in this currency have increased significantly. In the past three years, the number of official institutions holding renminbi in their reserves nearly doubled, and their holdings of the Chinese currency now exceed one trillion renminbi.  

And yet, for many observers renminbi reserves and investments remain smaller than the strength of the Chinese economy in the world economy would merit.

______________________________

From a reserve manager’s point of view, this presents more questions than answers:

  • Is the renminbi market liquid and deep enough?
  • What are the key risks and opportunities of investing into Chinese bonds?
  • What are the trends impacting market infrastructures facilitating the trading, clearing and settling of renminbi?
  • What will be the implications of the emerging geopolitical and geoeconomic dynamics of the US – China trade tensions and the Belt and Road Initiative?
______________________________

To this end, Central Banking Publications has responded to the demand from central bankers and will host a meeting of reserve managers dedicated to these important topics.
