Economic Daily: Accelerate the application of digital RMB and international cooperation

The article suggests strengthening cooperation and connections with economies that are major economic and trade partners of China, economies that have a reduced dependency on other major currencies, and economies that have a need for currency diversification in international trade pricing, settlement, and foreign exchange reserves. It is necessary to actively and prudently launch cross-border payment and settlement pilot projects for digital RMB, and expand the coverage and application of digital RMB in regional economic and trade, investment and financing cooperation, enhance the inertia and stickiness of using digital RMB, and study and analyze the reserve demand for digital RMB from trading partner countries. In the construction process of RMB cross-border payment system and RMB cross-border payment and receipt information management system, it is necessary to better consider promoting digital RMB.
