"The People’s Bank of China has attended bimonthly Basel meetings since 1996. China’s reserves remain overwhelmingly dollar-denominated. Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and BlackRock have been instrumental in building Chinese capital markets. After more than a decade of BRICS rhetoric about de-dollarization, no concrete alternative system has emerged. The yuan’s share of global reserves remains marginal. The appearance of rivalry provides pressure relief — populations on both sides can believe alternatives exist, that the contest remains open — while the central banks of all major economies coordinate in the same tower, under the same immunity, following the same logic."
