HSBC Holdings Plc launched a mutual fund in the United States that invests in yuan-denominated fixed income products including bonds and deposits in offshore yuan markets, to provide American investors with more investment opportunities.
The London-based lender said yesterday in a statement the expansion of the offshore yuan market has attracted more overseas markets to invest in offshore yuan products. The fund will provide US investors the opportunity to invest in dim sum bonds, a yuan bond sold in Hong Kong, and thus benefit from potential yuan appreciation.
"The yuan has been more actively used in global trade in the past three years. According to trade data in the first quarter, 8 percent of China's international trade is settled in yuan. Given competitive yields and long-term potential in yuan appreciation, yuan-denominated bonds in offshore markets are compelling. The internationalization of the currency will be an important theme for many years in the future," the lender said.
