Vice President of the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences: Suggest adding provisions to the "People's Bank of China Law" to clarify the cross-border payment function of digital RMB

The Vice President of the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences and Executive Director of the China Finance Society, Fan Wenzhong, wrote an article in the Hong Kong Wen Wei Po titled "Steadily Promoting the Coordinated Innovation of Digital Renminbi and Hong Kong Stablecoins," in which he pointed out: Currently, the cross-border use of digital renminbi mainly relies on the internal regulations and pilot policies of the People's Bank of China, lacking clear legal authorization. It is suggested to add provisions in the revision of the "People's Bank of China Law" to clarify the cross-border payment functions of digital renminbi and the legality of its interconnection with compliant overseas digital currency systems, while striving to clarify the "special regulatory requirements and preferential policies for stablecoin issuing institutions that exchange with the mainland central bank's digital currency" in the implementation rules of Hong Kong's "Stablecoin Ordinance," forming a synergistic institutional force.
