China's central bank is expanding the digital yuan into fiscal spending and cross-border trade, creating a UnionPay-style clearinghouse.

China’s central bank is advancing the digital yuan from a pilot project to permanent infrastructure by planning a national clearinghouse and incentivizing banks to expand its use in fiscal spending and cross-border trade [1, 4]. The People’s Bank of China (PBOC) disclosed these measures on May 30, aiming to build a UnionPay-style backbone for the e-CNY system [1].
