Beyond gold and the dollar: How's RMB emerging as a safe haven?

from World Today

Gold prices are swinging sharply, while the appeal of the U.S. dollar as the world's dominant reserve currency appears to be gradually eroding. Does de-dollarization force the world to rethink safe havens — beyond dollar and gold. And where does the Renminbi stand in this shifting landscape? To explore these questions, host Ge Anna is joined by Yan Liang, Professor of Economics at Willamette University; Sean Chang, Associate Professor of Practice in Finance at the University of Hong Kong; and Chen Jiahe, Chief Investment Officer at Novem Arcae Technologies.
