陈茂波：全球超70%离岸人民币支付与结算通过香港完成

Hong Kong's Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po said in his secretary's essay that Hong Kong will continue to promote the internationalization of the renminbi and the interconnection of financial markets, further consolidating Hong Kong's position as a global offshore renminbi hub.

Data shows that currently over 70% of global offshore renminbi payments and settlements are completed through Hong Kong. The scale of renminbi interbank settlement in the local banking system has exceeded 41 trillion yuan, equivalent to approximately 2 trillion yuan per day. With the assistance of the People's Bank of China, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority has launched a renminbi funding arrangement mechanism to reduce the cost for banks to obtain renminbi funds, supporting trade financing and corporate operational needs. Several banks have already expanded related businesses based on this mechanism.
