Of course, some foreign central banks have signed currency-swap agreements with China and even hold small amounts of its currency in their reserve portfolios. But these actions may be less a sign of the renminbi’s inevitable march toward global dominance than a low-cost bet on its likely emergence as a widely accepted international currency.
当然，一些外国央行已经与中国签订了货币互换协议并在自身的储备项目表中持有少量的人民币。但这些行动与其说是代表了人民币向国际统治地位不可避免地推进，不如说是对其崛起成为一个广泛接受的国际货币可能性的低成本赌注。而那些国家出于中国不断崛起的经济实力而与其维持良好关系的意愿也必须考虑在内。
