The yuan's role in global payments has reached a record high, with its share increasing to 4.74% in July from 4.61% in June, maintaining its position as the fourth most used currency in global transactions. This growth is part of a broader effort to internationalize the yuan and reduce the dominance of the US dollar. Additionally, yuan-funded emerging market carry trades have outperformed those funded by the yen this quarter.
