Pressure in the so-called offshore renminbi, known as CNH, has been building in recent weeks. That culminated in CNH hitting a record low of 6.7885 per dollar on Tuesday morning, its weakest level since offshore trading was introduced in July 2010.
Analysts expected the renminbi could depreciate following its inclusion in the International Monetary Fund’s basket of international reserve currencies at the start of October, as well as following the conclusion of the Golden Week holiday at the start of this month.
