Overtaking the US, China became the world s largest trading nation in 2013, and the largest foreign direct investment (FDI) destination in 2014, and is expected to become the largest consumer market in 2020.
This has raised anticipation on the international currency status of the RMB to a new high. China s rapid development has created enormous opportunities for China-Bangladesh bilateral currency cooperation.
