Once upon a time, Chairman Mao said "The East Is Red" but people did not believe him. Today, the might of PRC cannot be denied:
"Since the late-2000s, the People's Republic of China (PBC) has sought to internationalize its official currency, the Renminbi (RMB). The RMB Internationalization accelerated in 2009 when China established dim sum bond market and expanded Cross-Border Trade RMB Settlement Pilot Project, which helps establish pools of offshore RMB liquidity. By 2013, the RMB is the 8th most traded currency in the world. As of May 2014, 1.47% of world payments was settled in RMB, which ranked RMB as the 7th most traded currency in the world. The Renminbi Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (RQFII) quotas were also extended to other five countries - the UK, Singapore, France, Korea and Germany, each with the quotas of ¥80bn except Singapore (¥50bn). Previously, only Hong Kong was allowed, with a ¥270bn quota. The China's RMB internationalization and foreign exchange (FX) reforms are evolving rapidly and full convertibility is expected over the next couple of years...."
