🏴 ZeroHedge | The Start Of De-Dollarization: China’s Move Away From The USD | May 24, 2024:
“Since 2010, the majority of China’s cross-border payments, like those of many countries, had been settled in U.S. dollars (USD). As of the first quarter of 2023, that’s no longer the case.
As Visual Capitalist’s Julian Wendling shows in the grahic [above], from the Hinrich Foundation, the Chinese renminbi (RMB) is growing in popularity in payments both domestically and globally.
(…)
As of March 2024, over half (52.9%) of Chinese payments were settled in RMB while 42.8% were settled in USD. This is double the share from five years previous. According to Goldman Sachs, foreigners’ increased willingness to trade assets denominated in RMB significantly contributed to de-dollarization in favor of China’s currency. Also, early last year, Brazil and Argentina announced that they would begin allowing trade settlements in RMB.”
