中国工商银行(亚洲)近日与中国工商银行(土耳其)股份有限公司合作，成功为宝达投资(香港)有限公司办理了对土耳其出口项下的首批人民币结算业务，并叙作了人民币贸易融资业务。这一举措标志着人民币在国际贸易中的应用又迈出了重要一步，同时也显示了中国工商银行(亚洲)在跨境人民币业务方面的实力和创新。
2024年上半年，中国工商银行(亚洲)的人民币业务取得了显著成绩，跨境人民币业务量突破2.4万亿元人民币，人民币资产余额超过1600亿元，较年初增长37%。其中，人民币贷款余额连续十个季度保持增长，同比增长20%，人民币贷款投放额更是同比增长123%。
中国与土耳其于2019年签署了双边本币互换协议，土耳其中央银行随后宣布以人民币进行结算从中国进口的产品。此次合作的成功，不仅有效降低了汇率风险、汇兑成本和融资成本，提升了交易效率，也为宝达投资(香港)稳健拓展海外市场提供了有力支持。
中国工商银行(亚洲)助理行政总裁段梦澈表示，人民币已成为全球第五大储备货币、第四大支付货币及第二大贸易融资货币，其稳定性和便捷性使得以人民币进行国际贸易结算的需求持续增加。此次合作的成功，不仅展现了人民币在国际贸易中的重要性，也为其他金融机构提供了可借鉴的案例。随着人民币国际化进程的不断推进，未来将有更多国家和地区选择使用人民币进行贸易结算，进一步推动全球金融市场的多元化发展。

News Title: ICBC Asia Assists Hong Kong Enterprises with First RMB Settlement for Trade with Turkey
Keywords: ICBC Asia, RMB Settlement, Turkish Trade
News Content: ICBC Asia recently collaborated with Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (Turkey) Inc. to successfully handle the first batch of RMB settlement transactions for export to Turkey for Hong Kong-based Pao Dak Investment Ltd., and to provide RMB trade financing services. This move marks a significant step forward in the application of RMB in international trade, and also demonstrates the strength and innovation of ICBC Asia in cross-border RMB business.
During the first half of 2024, ICBC Asia’s RMB business achieved notable results, with cross-border RMB transaction volume exceeding 2.4 trillion RMB and RMB assets balance exceeding 160 billion RMB, representing a 37% increase from the beginning of the year. Among these, the RMB loan balance has been growing for ten consecutive quarters, with a year-on-year increase of 20%, and a 123% year-on-year growth in RMB loan disbursements.
China and Turkey signed a bilateral currency swap agreement in 2019, and the Turkish Central Bank subsequently announced that it would settle imports from China in RMB. The success of this cooperation effectively reduced exchange rate risks, transaction costs, and financing costs, improved transaction efficiency, and provided strong support for Pao Dak Investment Ltd.’s steady expansion of its overseas market.
Assistant Executive President of ICBC Asia, Duan Mengcuo, stated that RMB has become the world’s fifth largest reserve currency, fourth largest payment currency, and second largest trade financing currency, thanks to its stability and convenience, which has continuously increased the demand for RMB settlement in international trade. The success of this cooperation not only highlighted the importance of RMB in international trade but also provided a case study for other financial institutions. As the process of RMB internationalization continues to advance, more countries and regions are expected to choose RMB for trade settlement, further promoting the diversification of the global financial market.
