Less than 10 days ago, the City of London became the first global market to sell Yuan denominated bonds, opening the Far Eastern currency to begin its move towards internationalization. Now on Oct. 29, the nation's of Germany and South Korea are both rushing in to follow Britain's move, and are paving the way for China to have Yuan bond hubs set up in these two countries.

The Yuan has been accelerating its presence as a global trade currency since the beginning of the decade, with an estimated 2.8% of all trade now denominated in this currency. And with the Yuan surpassing the Yen back in August to move into the number four spot in global currency use, its rapid acceptance is leading the IMF to recommend adding it to their Special Drawing Rights (SDR) basket of currencies, and provide it the necessary momentum to become a recognized de facto global reserve.

Germany’s Deutsche Borse Group has joined forces with the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) and the China Financial Futures Exchange (CFFEX) to trade yuan-denominated products.

According to the German exchange, the project will start in November under the brand CEINEX and will be headquartered in Frankfurt. The management board will be comprised of senior officers from the three exchanges.

In addition to Germany's sudden elevation of the Yuan within their markets, long time U.S. ally South Korea also appears to be seeing the writing on the wall, and is pushing China to setup their own Yuan based bond hub to propel themselves towards the top of China's rising currency hegemony.

South Korea plans to sell the Chinese yuan-denominated sovereign bonds for the first time as it pushes to become one of the offshore yuan hubs in Asia, people familiar with the matter said Thursday.

The country's finance ministry picked six arrangers last week for the issuance of the foreign exchange stabilization bond, a sovereign bond floated by the ministry to raise funds for stabilizing its foreign exchange market, said the sources who asked not to be identified as the plan had yet to be officially announced.

Like Great Britain in the 1950's, the sun appears to be setting upon America's domination of global finance, and in dollar hegemony. And with China finalizing its own SWIFT based system (CIPS) to allow currency exchange for their burgeoning trade pacts in and around the Asian sphere, it appears that it won't be long before the Yuan surpasses both the Euro and the Pound in global trade, and completes its preparations for a direct showdown with the dollar and with the world's polar global reserve currency.

SEJONG, Nov. 5 (Yonhap) -- South Korea plans to issue yuan-denominated foreign exchange stabilization bonds in China to better meet rising demand for the Chinese currency and help local firms do business in the world's No. 2 market, a government source said Thursday.

According to the source in the finance ministry, the government submitted a request to Chinese regulators asking permission to issue the bonds.

"The matter is being reviewed and once permission is given the size of timing for the bond issuance will be decided," said an official, who declined to be identified.

Beijing has been moving to open its financial market, and allowing outsiders to issue bonds is part of the ongoing process.

He said that besides the administrative process, market conditions will be checked before bonds are issued.

South Korea can issue a maximum 700 billion won (US$615.3 million) worth of foreign exchange stabilization bonds this year. The ceiling for next year has been set at 500 billion won.

At present, local firms that need the yuan had to acquire the currency through an off-shore bonds market, not from the Chinese market. Last year the off-shore bond market controlled by the Export-Import Bank of Korea issued bonds worth 590 billion won, with this number expected to top 2.7 trillion won this year.

Another insider said that Seoul has even picked a firm to handle the sales process.

He said that issuing bonds in China can allow the country to more easily secure adequate liquidity and even help local companies who want to sell corporate debts in China check overall market conditions.

"With the Chinese economy expected to continue growing, and the yuan to gain more prominence down the line, it makes sense for South Korea to diversify its foreign currency holdings," the official said.

The ministry official, however, said it is too early to say if South Korea will be the first to issue foreign exchange stabilization bonds in China.

The official did not give names, but media reports indicate Russia and Canada have taken similar actions and requested permission to issue yuan-based bonds.

Actually our rupee is the most welcomed currency in Asia.
