外国央行越发青睐人民币债券

China Development Bank Corp.'s latest dim sum bond offer in Hong Kong yielded the strongest interest yet from the world's central banks, highlighting the growing trend in which foreign countries are diversifying their foreign exchange reserves into the Chinese currency.
全球多国央行对国家开发银行股份有限公司(China Development Bank Corp.)在香港发行的最新点心债券（即人民币计价债券）表现出迄今为止最强烈的兴趣。这凸显了一股日益明显的趋势，即这些国家正在通过配置人民币资产实现外汇储备的多元化。

Rising order books for offshore yuan bonds among central banks also underscore a need to seek alternative assets amid concerns over the long-term prospects of the greenback, which has remained weak for several years.
