The Shanghai Futures Exchange has released draft proposals aimed at expanding access for overseas investors to domestic futures markets. This move is part of a broader effort to internationalize the Chinese renminbi by deepening its use as a global reserve currency. Concurrently, the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority have launched a platform supporting Beijing's ambition to promote the renminbi's international status. These developments come amid ongoing U.S. restrictions on investment flows between the United States and China, including an executive order signed by former President Donald Trump in February 2025 limiting U.S. investments in Chinese assets.
