About Chinese Yuan (¥)

The Chinese Yuan Renminbi (CNY, ISO 4217 code 156, symbol ¥; also abbreviated RMB) is the official currency of the People's Republic of China, issued by the People's Bank of China (PBoC, est. 1948). 'Yuan' is the unit; 'Renminbi' is the currency's official name ('People's Currency'). Subdivided into 10 jiao or 100 fen. Banknotes: ¥1, ¥5, ¥10, ¥20, ¥50, ¥100 (Mao Zedong portrait on all denominations since 1999); coins: ¥0.10, ¥0.50, ¥1. Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan have separate currencies (HKD, MOP, TWD). CNY is a managed-float currency — PBoC sets a daily reference rate (the 'fix') against USD and allows ±2% intraday movement. CNY achieved Special Drawing Rights (SDR) inclusion October 2016 (10.92% weighting, replacing portions of EUR + GBP weight). CNY is the world's 5th-largest reserve currency (~2.4% of global FX reserves per IMF COFER 2024) but use is constrained by capital controls. PBoC's e-CNY (Digital Currency Electronic Payment, DC/EP) CBDC has the world's largest CBDC user base (~260M wallets).
