Offshore Yuan Remains at Multi-Year High

The offshore yuan strengthened to around 6.76 per dollar on Tuesday, holding near its strongest level since February 2023, as investors increasingly regarded Chinese assets as a relative safe haven amid heightened geopolitical tensions involving Iran. Geopolitical uncertainty persisted after the latest developments indicated that Iran had suspended indirect talks with Washington over Israel’s military operations in Lebanon, even as US President Trump asserted that negotiations remained ongoing. China’s diversified energy supply base and comparatively limited direct exposure to the Middle East have reinforced the attractiveness of its financial markets during the conflict, underpinning the yuan’s resilience. However, further upside in the yuan may be capped by Beijing’s preference for exchange-rate stability, as reflected in the People’s Bank of China’s continued weaker-than-expected daily fixings, as well as potential dollar-buying interventions by major state-owned banks.
