The designation of Deutsche Bank, a key and influential bank in Europe, to serve as the yuan-clearing bank will greatly facilitate and expand the use of the yuan in the EU market, providing more impetus to broader China-EU economic and trade ties, a Chinese analyst said on Tuesday.
The People's Bank of China (PBC), the central bank, announced on Monday that it had decided to authorize Deutsche Bank to serve as the yuan-clearing bank in Frankfurt, Germany, based on a memorandum of understanding with the Deutsche Bundesbank.
The move came as China-EU trade and economic ties continue to deepen and bilateral trade continues to expand, despite recent restrictions imposed by the European Commission.
In a statement sent to the Global Times on Monday, Deutsche Bank said that following the appointment by the PBC, it will facilitate direct end-to-end processing, clearing and settlement services for cross-border yuan transactions for European financial institutions and businesses, acting as a local bridge to China's payment systems. 
Deutsche Bank, a global systemically important bank as well as the world's largest euro-clearing bank, said that it is the first foreign bank in Europe to receive this designation.
"Securing yuan-clearing capability in Europe reinforces our role as a trusted global clearing partner and our long-standing support for yuan internationalization. It strengthens China-Europe financial connectivity and enhances our ability to support clients' cross-border trade and investment flows with greater choice and flexibility," Alexander von zur Muehlen, CEO of Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa and Germany at Deutsche Bank, said in the statement.
Xi Junyang, a professor at the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, told the Global Times on Tuesday that while a number of Chinese banks are already performing yuan-clearing functions in the EU, the addition of Deutsche Bank, with its deep roots in the local market, carries great significance.
"Banks have different client bases, and Deutsche Bank has many European companies as its customers. With the appointment, these market participants enjoy a far greater degree of facilitation and ease in tapping yuan use cases," said the professor.
Companies and financial institutions can also avoid risks of foreign exchange losses as they can now directly choose yuan-euro settlement and bypass the use of a third currency, the expert said, noting that China-EU trade and investment ties will be one step closer with a local clearing bank coming onboard.
Tian Lihui, dean of the Institute of Financial Development at Nankai University, told the Global Times on Tuesday that the latest development, some 12 years after the first-yuan clearing bank form a Chinese bank was set up in Frankfurt, marked a milestone as the yuan-clearing system in Europe has evolved from a model where "Chinese entities handle clearing for Europeans" to one where "Europeans handle yuan-clearing themselves."
The decision by one of Europe's largest domestic banks to integrate into the yuan-clearing system signals that China-Europe financial cooperation is moving beyond the shallow level of facilitating trade settlements into the more substantial level of jointly building financial infrastructure, Tian said.
For both China and Europe, this move represents a mutually beneficial institutional alignment, Tian said. "China gains greater depth in the offshore yuan market, while Europe secures an additional strategic option amid the contest of major currencies."
Brussels has recently been intensifying its use of restrictive trade and regulatory tools across sectors ranging from clean technologies to digital infrastructure and foreign subsidies, with many of these measures seen as directly affecting Chinese firms and adding strain to China-EU economic relations.
However, despite these moves, deepening industrial and supply chain integration and the strong complementarity of the two economies have continued to push bilateral trade to new highs. In the first seven months of 2026, China's total trade with the EU stood at 3.67 trillion yuan ($543.90 billion), up 9.5 percent year-on-year, data from China's General Administration of Customs showed on Friday.
As China-EU economic and trade ties continue to expand and deepen, demand for the yuan to be used in the EU market will rise proportionately, and more EU banks will likely be authorized to serve as yuan-clearing banks, Xi Junyang said.
Financial cooperation between the world's largest trading bloc and the largest trading nation has accelerated in recent months. In May, the PBC renewed and expanded a bilateral currency swap agreement with the National Bank of Serbia, increasing the value of the swap from 1.5 billion yuan to 5 billion yuan.
Almost 80 percent of the surveyed Chinese companies operating in the EU plan to expand their investment, even amid tightening policies in the EU and an increasingly complex business environment, according to a report published by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to the EU and the China Economic Information Service in March. Fostering cooperation in emerging industries and cross-border finance have been highlighted by industry insiders as new growth drivers of China-EU trade and economic cooperation.
The yuan accounted for 3.1 percent of global payments in June, rising from 2.75 percent in the previous month, and ranking as the fifth most active currency for global payments by value, according to a report from the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication. In terms of trade finance, the yuan ranked second with a market share of 8 percent.
。    三代国门下的坚守    ■李国栋 杨智博 解放军报记者 郑茂琦        北部战区陆军某旅“国门卫士模范连”官兵，在绥芬河国门前执行巡逻任务。彭旭日 摄    从黑龙江省哈尔滨市乘坐高铁一路向东，列车驶过牡丹江站后，海拔陡升。记者望向窗外，一座依山而建的边城轮廓渐渐清晰。    绥芬河，这座嵌在祖国东北边陲一角的小城，有着“百年口岸”的美誉。一条绵延的铁路线，串起这座“火车拉来的城市”的今昔岁月。走进绥芬河市站前路38号，一栋外墙黄白相间的建筑在街巷间格外醒目。

二 | 这里是原中东铁路最东端的绥芬河火车站旧址。当年的候车室已被改造为中东铁路记忆馆，馆内展陈的500余张历史照片，静静诉说着绥芬河与铁路相生相伴的深厚渊源。    从中东铁路记忆馆向着国门方向前行，绥芬河口岸的铁轨传来微微震颤，隐约夹杂着列车隆隆的声响，那是中欧班列即将通关的信号。如今的绥芬河口岸，铁路线纵横交织，货运场站内装卸作业昼夜不停。作为“一带一路”的重要陆路门户，这座边陲小城依托公路、铁路两个国家级一类口岸，已经成为名副其实的“国境商都”。

三 |     这天，记者跟随北部战区陆军某旅“国门卫士模范连”官兵执行边境巡逻任务。这条巡逻路，指导员杨学文已经走了12年。    巡逻车沿边境公路缓缓行驶，雨幕中，三代国门依次出现在眼前。    首先看到的，是一道不足10米宽的铸铁手动挡杆，那是1987年设立的第一代国门。“当年，连队官兵就在这儿手动抬杆，冬季铁挡杆冰得刺骨，必须戴上棉手套。”杨学文指着窗外，对新兵朱述富讲起当年连队官兵的戍边往事。

四 | 那时边境公路路面没有硬化，雨天全是泥坑，官兵们徒步巡逻深一脚浅一脚，裤腿上裹着厚厚一层黄泥，回到连队鞋子能倒出半鞋泥水。记者望着雨雾里静默的第一代国门，仿佛看见几十年前，年轻的士兵顶风冒雨动手抬杆的身影。    向南不远处，第二代国门的灰砖墙渐渐清晰，它见证了绥芬河从边陲小镇到“国境商都”的跨越。杨学文还记得，自己刚入伍来到绥芬河时，一位老班长就在这座国门前给他讲述往事：碰到大雨天气，查验岗的雨棚挡不住狂风骤雨，外面下大雨，棚里下小雨，几分钟就会浑身湿透，靴子里灌满雨水。“那时候条件差，但大家心里明白：雨下得再大，国门岗哨决不能松半分。

五 | ”杨学文说。    行至第三代国门前，巡逻车稳稳停下。

六 | 这座2014年启用的新国门高51.8米，双向八车道开阔通畅，“中华人民共和国”7个红色大字在雨幕里仍旧醒目。

七 | 杨学文下达指令，官兵开始徒步巡逻。    从简易挡杆到巍峨国门，三代国门的更迭是边境口岸发展的缩影，也是一代代“国门卫士”坚守的见证。    汽笛长鸣，一趟货运列车缓缓停下。官兵们迅速就位，迎着风雨，仔细检查车体周边。

八 | 班长刘述业大声叮嘱：“雨天视线差，边角缝隙都盯紧了，一处都不能漏！”检查完毕，列车启动。雨水顺着脸颊往下流，官兵们却纹丝不动，目光如炬扫过每一节车厢。    结束全线巡逻任务后，记者漫步在绥芬河街头，商家招牌错落有致，老式建筑的尖顶上挂着水珠，在渐亮的天光里显得格外鲜活。街面上，往来行人络绎不绝，既有操着各地口音的国内游客，也有不少外籍旅客，整座边城洋溢着安宁祥和的气氛。    密雨渐歇，云层渐渐散开。

九 | 阳光越过连绵群山，洒在国门的红色大字上。

十 | 记者望着远处的第三代国门，想起边境线上那些年轻的面孔，也想起杨学文的话：“国门会变新、变高，但我们守国门的心，就像界碑一样，牢牢扎在这里。”    资料链接    作为“一带一路”中蒙俄经济走廊重要陆路门户，绥芬河市依托公路、铁路两个国家级一类口岸，聚力推进对俄互联互通体系提质升级，不断放大通道经济辐射带动作用，在跨境物流、经贸往来、产业落地等领域取得显著成效，生动书写了边疆口岸深度融入和服务国家对外开放大局的实践答卷。    2025年，绥芬河市进出口总值296.96亿元。其中，出口端增长动能尤为强劲，2023年起连续三年出口保持两位数同比增长。

十一 | 2026年上半年进出口同比增长30.1%，出口同比增长52.5%。外贸发展韧性持续显现，2025年口岸过货量1043.6万吨，铁路口岸始终为运能主力，公路口岸货运潜力加速释放，过货量从2015年58.3万吨增长至2025年的157万吨，10年增长近1.7倍。    返回，查看更多。
