Redback slide: renminbi payments by value dropped 3.71% versus June, but this was lower than the 4.34% decline overall

The Chinese renminbi regained its position as the fifth most active currency for global payments in July, with a share of 2%, despite a slowdown in the currency’s path to internationalisation, according to payments infrastructure company Swift.

The latest figures show the value of renminbi payments was up from the 1.98% it registered in June; a big enough change to overtake the Canadian dollar, which accounted for 1.82% of global payments.

Overall, renminbi payments by value decreased by 3.71%
