The methods used in the article are retrospective analysis and graphic analysis. The work is divided into three sections. The first section provides a broad overview of modern reserve currencies. The second part characterizes RMB’s shaping as a reserve currency, as well as inner and outer factors that influence its status. The third section includes information about RMB’s current status and its perspectives for being a reserve currency in the future. The article argues that currently RMB has already become a regional reserve currency in Asia-Pacific. Chinese government continues to make steps towards international expansion of RMB, yet these steps cannot make RMB one of the leading world currencies together with USD and EUR in the nearest decade.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">Рассматриваются перспективы китайского юаня в части расширения его влияния и становления в качестве мировой резервной валюты. Методы, используемые в статье, - ретроспективный анализ и графический анализ. Приводится общее описание современных резервных валют. Далее описывается увеличение доли юаня в корзине специальных прав заимствования (СДР), а также внутренние и внешние факторы, влияющие на его статус. Представлена информация о текущем состоянии юаня и его перспективах стать мировой резервной валютой в будущем. Автор приходит к выводу, что в настоящее время юань можно назвать региональной резервной валютой в Азиатско-Тихоокеанском регионе. Китайские власти продолжают делать шаги в направлении международной экспансии, однако этот факт не сделает юань конкурентоспособным по сравнению с долларом США и евро в ближайшее десятилетие.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>reserve currencies</kwd><kwd>Chinese Renminbi</kwd><kwd>CNY</kwd><kwd>SDR basket</kwd><kwd>RMB’s status</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>резервные валюты</kwd><kwd>китайский юань</kwd><kwd>юань</kwd><kwd>корзина СДР</kwd><kwd>статус юаня</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Aglietta, M.
