It’s not the first such product: A yuan-denominated crude oil contract, launched in March 2018, has been modestly successful. A subsequent push to let foreigners trade iron ore in Dalian established a global benchmark.

Beijing wants increased pricing power in the commodities markets it… Read More Here
