RMB to us dollar exchange rate In January, 14 days after the establishment of the new exchange rate reform, the downward trend of the new stock market continued to depreciate. In March 10th, the median price was 6.1312, down 111 basis points from the previous trading day, the biggest decline since July 23, 2012.

At this sensitive time, on the afternoon of March 11th, Bank of China For the first time, the offshore RMB index (ORI) was released to the whole world to reflect the level of RMB internationalization. As the only representative of WeChat's new media, the financial city was invited to attend the conference.

According to calculation, the Bank of China left the coast at the end of 2013. RMB The index is 0.91%, which means that in the international financial market activities such as offshore deposit and loan, the renminbi accounts for only 0.91% of all currencies. Although this figure is significantly higher than the 0.5% in 2012, it is obviously not in line with the important position of my great country in the world economy.

The gap between the US dollar, euro, pound and yen at the end of 2013 is 48.17%, 25.20%, 5.91% and 5.50% respectively.

This shows a cruel reality: the US dollar and the euro still occupy an absolute leading position in the international financial arena, and the road to RMB internationalization is still long.

Another indicator shows that the market still has strong expectations for the high interest rate and appreciation trend of the renminbi. According to the bank estimates, the balance of offshore RMB loans is about 400 billion yuan, not only far from the scale of tens of billions of offshore dollars and euro loans, but also large difference from offshore RMB deposits (nearly 1 trillion and 500 billion). It shows that both enterprises and individuals are more willing to hold renminbi assets rather than liabilities.

Although the Yuan's share in the international market is less than 1%, Yue Yi, vice president of the Bank of China, said that the renminbi's role as an international reserve currency is expected to continue to improve. In recent years, Nigeria, too, South Africa, Belarus, Indonesia and other countries and regions have incorporated Renminbi into their foreign exchange reserves. Russia, Chile, Saudi Arabia and the European Union have indicated that they are actively studying the renminbi as their foreign exchange reserve.

Yue said that the bank will improve the global RMB clearing network and strive to serve as the main bank of RMB clearing for major international financial centers.
