Follow on Google News | Knightmare on Wall Streets Edgar Perez on Chinas Decision to Allow Foreign Hedge Funds to Raise YuanBuilding off of the momentum of past conferences, Golden Networking brings back China Leaders Forum 2013 (ChinaLeadersForum.com), "Will the Chinese Dream Become Long-term Investors' Dream or Nightmare?", New York, October 1st.
By: Golden Networking Less than a month after trading incidents generated by Everbright Securities, China's State Administration of Foreign Exchange has taken a step forward in its plan to open up its capital account and internationalize its currency with a trial program that allows foreign hedge funds to raise money denominated in yuan for overseas investment. Each of six hedge funds will be allowed to raise up to $50 million worth of yuan in China, according to people familiar with the situation. While the trial program is minuscule in comparison with a similar program set up in 2006 for domestic investors, Mr. Perez will focus on the significance as a move toward full convertibility of the Chinese currency, which the country's leadership has pledged as part of efforts to move away from a command economy. China's regulators approved the pilot-program launch in Shanghai, with six firms-Oaktree Capital Management, Och-Ziff Capital Management Group, Winton Capital Management, Man Group, Citadel and Canyon Partners-getting the go-ahead.
