The People’s Bank of China is promoting the renminbi, commonly known as the renminbi, to become an efficient international currency for international payments. Pan Gongsheng, Governor of the People’s Bank of China, emphasized that the People’s Bank of China continues to promote financial cooperation with the Global South.
People’s Bank Governor: Internationalization of the renminbi remains China’s goal
China continues to promote the internationalization of its currency, the renminbi, as part of its comprehensive economic policy.
People’s Bank of China (PBOC) Governor Pan Gongsheng recently said that China is promoting the use of the renminbi (commonly referred to as the renminbi) as an important element of external payment instruments.
At a press conference, Gongshen declared:
“We are gradually promoting the internationalization of the renminbi. China will build a more secure, efficient and diverse cross-border payment system.”

Furthermore, Gongsheng referred to this internationalization as “an integral part of China’s overall reform and opening-up process” and emphasized that the organization is working on liberalizing procedures in this regard.
Kimimori stressed that the People’s Bank of China “resolutely promotes international financial cooperation and actively participates in global financial management” with the European Union and countries of the Global South such as Brazil.
The bank recently allowed the renminbi to appreciate against the dollar, breaking one of its strongest rally against the dollar following the outbreak of conflict in the Middle East.
Analysts expect the yuan to continue appreciating over the next five years, supported by a “fast China, slow US” growth pattern, as China’s economy expands faster than the US economy, supporting the yuan’s fundamental value.
In February, Chinese President Xi Jinping expressed renewed interest in establishing a strong currency that would be “widely used in international trade, investment, and foreign exchange markets and achieve the status of a reserve currency.”
This could mean China intends to allow the yuan to reach a “fair value” that Goldman Sachs estimates to be 25% above its current price.
Nevertheless, the People’s Bank of China has been very cautious in modifying the renminbi’s exchange rate and will undoubtedly continue to do so in the future, considering global macroeconomic events on the way to a strong renminbi.
