The Risk of Not Having a Chinese Yuan Business Account

Operating without CNH capability leaves corporates exposed to unnecessary costs and friction. Forced USD settlement and ad-hoc conversions create unpredictability and reduce competitiveness in China-linked supply chains.

FX erosion:

Repeated, unplanned conversions compress margins.

Payment delays:

SWIFT-only routes add intermediaries, days, and fees.

Counterparty friction:

Local partners prefer CNH transfers to domestic accounts.

Compliance hurdles:

Paying taxes and payroll without a CNH account can be challenging.
