China's Trump Card

Discover the impact of blockchain on the trade relationship between the world's two largest economies

China's Trump Card: Cryptocurrency and its Game-Changing Role in Sino-US Trade grapples with the fascinating issue of the effect of digital currencies on world trade and the relationship between China and the United States in particular. Full of forward-looking insights, solid data analysis, extensive collection of relevant literature and incisive observations, author Raymond Yeung compellingly argues that cryptocurrencies will have a significant role to play in harmonizing geopolitical power struggles.

Covering all the subjects required for a full understanding of the future of the Sino-US trade relationship, China's Trump Card discusses:

• The looming risks of de-dollarization in the wake of de-globalization
• The pressing need to construct a new currency standard superior to the fiat money regime in response to the global imbalance.
• China's diversification of its offshore portfolios to include alternative investments
• The implications of Facebook's plan to create a blockchain-based digital currency
• The fact that blockchain offers a fungible asset class option for China's reserves investment, which can be relatively independent of political considerations
  This book is perfect for business leaders, investors, financial analysts, policymakers, economists, fintech developers and others who have a stake in the outcome of the blossoming trade disputes between the United States and China.

RAYMOND YEUNG graduated with a PhD in Economics from Queen's University in Canada and is a holder of the Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certification. He began his economist career one week prior to the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997. He is currently Chief Economist Greater China at Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ), leading an award-winning team covering the region's macroeconomic and financial market research. His insights have received strong following, including institutional investors, corporate treasurers, and central banks. He speaks frequently in industry conferences and shares his views on Bloomberg, Financial Times, CNBC, Di Yi Cai Jin, and Caixin.

DISCOVER HOW DIGITAL CURRENCIES CAN TRANSFORM THE WORLD'S TRADING SYSTEM "Raymond Yeung does a brilliant job of explaining the historical role of the US dollar and how it has thwarted China's efforts to internationalize its own currency, the yuan. His focus on the US-China trade war and the evolving global technology landscape provides a fitting and timely analysis around how US-China financial decoupling could be accelerated by the creation of a World Crypto Currency (WCC)."
Alex Capri, Visiting Senior Fellow, NUS Business School; Research Fellow, Hinrich Foundation "Raymond Yeung has written a ground-breaking book. He links globalization, dollarization and financial integration in a new and insightful way. His analysis of China's foreign reserves and how they are used in many different ways including massive equity investments is very interesting. His analysis of China's trade and investment restrictions is fair and balanced. Mr. Yeung states that cryptocurrencies and block chain innovations could replace the dollar dominance and facilitate China's and the world's move away from dollar dependency. His idea of a World Crypto Currency (WCC) could provide China and the world with a reserve currency to replace the US Dollar. It will result in the Federal Reserve having to make up the funding deficit, which would result in a dollar devaluation, fewer US imports, more US exports and the elimination of the trade gap. It's an interesting idea which deserves consideration."
Mark Mobius, Founder, Mobius Capital Partners; author of The Inflation Myth and the Wonderfull World of Deflation "Few subjects are more critical for the global markets than the intersection of China trade, China's ambitions for the renminbi, and the rise of cryptocurrencies. In China's Trump Card, Raymond Yeung provides a guide that is equal parts accessible and insightful, ending with a bold and innovative proposal to save China, the US, and the world from the trap of dollar dominance."
Tom Orlik, Chief Economist, Bloomberg Economics; author of China: The Bubble That Never Pops "In China's Trump Card, Raymond Yeung, has written a useful summary of trade friction between the US and China. But even more interesting is his emphasis on the friction on the financial front that has followed. He believes that just as globalization made the US dollar the pre-eminent currency in the world, the reversal of that globalization will inevitably lead to de-dollarization. His argument that cryptocurrency could soon present a credible alternative to the dollar regime is essential reading for those seeking a clue as to how the international monetary system might evolve."
Henny Sender, Chief Correspondent, International Finance, The Financial Times "China's Trump Card is an impressive and provocative attempt on the controversial subject of whether the US dollar's role as the global dominant reserve currency can be deposed. He goes into the emergence of cyber-currencies and whether these can replace fiat curre…
